What's left behind the scenes
- When Lauren Randall is raped and murdered, the handcuffs she is wearing disappear and reappear as she is struck.
- In 1994, Eric Mabius, who plays Alex Corvis, auditioned for the role of Jolly, which eventually went to the infamous Michael Massee.
- Rob Zombie was originally hired to write the screenplay, compose the music, and direct the film, but he left the project due to a conflict with the producers.

- The American flag hanging in the captain's office is not displayed in accordance with US Army regulations.
- Alex Corvis still has a full head of hair while sitting in the electric chair. Typically, the heads of those sentenced to death by electrocution are shaved to help prevent the head from potentially catching fire.

- Due to the failure of the previous installment, the film was released directly to video.
- Alex Corvis is the only Crow whose facial stripes are scars rather than paint.
