* UncreditedRole: The man who stood in for [[spoiler: Felissa Rose]] has remained anonymous. This is because of the backstory behind the scene. [[spoiler: The actor had to do the role due to parental complaints from Felissa Rose's mother. They had to make a mask of Felissa Rose's face and he had to stand, completely naked, wearing only a teenage girl mask, on the beach during the cold night. The poor guy had to get drunk so he can do the scene and he was crying before filming.]]

* RealLifeRelative: A lot of the cast and crew's relatives appeared as the campers getting off the bus near the beginning of the film.
* RealLifeWritesThePlot: Felissa Rose's mother protested about a couple of things that influenced the shooting process - and resulted in some additional {{Foreshadowing}} of the twist. [[spoiler: She did not want her daughter to be the killer, as she was too young. So the male Jonathan Tiersten acted as her double, and stood in for her in most of the killing scenes. It's him wearing a wig in the scenes where Kenny and Judy are killed. His hands are used in most of the shots of only Angela's hands, again to hide the killer's identity]].



** A shot of Judy [[spoiler: after she's killed with the curling iron]] was cut by the censors for being far too graphic.



** Felissa Rose was originally going to do the end scene [[spoiler: wearing a prosthetic penis]]. They eventually decided to achieve the shot with [[spoiler: a boy wearing a cast of Rose's face]].

* AbilityOverAppearance: Judy was intended to be a blonde, to contrast against Angela's brown hair. But Karen Fields played the AlphaBitch so well that the character became brunette.
* CreatorBacklash: The director later said he regretted having [[spoiler: Angela kill the kids who threw sand on her]]. He wanted every victim in the movie to be an AssholeVictim and later decided that this was a bit DisproportionateRetribution.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Along with ''The Survivor'', there were two other proposed sequels. One of them, ''Angel of Death'', would've had Angela somehow acquire a job as a high school teacher. [[HilarityEnsues Carnage Ensues]]. The other, ''Summer Stalk'', would've had a dinner theater and a {{cult}} move into the remains of Camp Arawak. Angela auditions to portray herself in a play based off her life, while the cult, which has some kind of warped fixation with her, starts stirring up trouble, believing the play is "sacrilege". Anyway, it would've ended with a fight to the death between Felissa Rose's Angela and Pamela Springsteen's Angela, with the revelation that one of them is the real deal, and the other is [[JackTheRipoff a delusional copycat]].
