The citation given is "The Literature/BookOfGenesis (...) Chapter 4, Verse 32." Two problems: one, Genesis Chapter 4 only has 26 verses, not 32; two, the passage does not come from Chapter 4 at all, but rather from Chapter 6, ''Verse'' 4.

* SerialNumbersFiledOff: ''The Giant of Thunder Mountain'', another movie starring Richard Kiel, has many similarities to this one, with Kiel as a reclusive giant at the top of the hill who is misunderstood by civilization. According to some rumors, this was Kiel's attempt at a family-friendly version of ''Eegah''.

** There's also the scene where Eegah puts on shaving cream, then lolls his tongue around and laps up the cream. The cast of ''Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000'' stated in ''The Mystery Science Theater 3000 Amazing Colossal Episode Guide'' that they consider the scene one of the most disgusting things they have seen.
