* CareerResurrection: This is the first big budget film for Creator/RichardStanley since he was famously fired from ''Film/TheIslandOfDrMoreau1996'' which seemingly destroyed his career. Unfortunately the 2021 abuse allegations against him are likely to land him back into career limbo.

* ShownTheirWork: When Nathan refers to liking "a good bourbon out of Texas", this might seem odd, as bourbon is traditionally distilled in Kentucky. However, later on in the film, he is shown drinking Garrison Brothers, which is indeed a high-end bourbon distilled in Texas.

* BoxOfficeBomb: One of the biggest in recent years. Budget: $12 million. Box office returns: $621'921. Not helped by the fact that it only had a limited release in 81 theaters.
