* DawsonCasting: Roxy was played by Hall Sr.'s thirty-something secretary, Marilyn Manning.
* IncestuousCasting: Writer/director Arch Hall Sr. cast himself as the father of his son's love interest. He used two pseudonyms to cover this - his director credit is "Nicholas Merriweather"[[note]]A pseudonym Jr. would use for his novels.[[/note]] and his acting credit as Robert Miller is "William Watters."
* LoopingLines:
** An infamous goof was a result of the botching of one of these: at one point, while the main characters are walking, one of them suddenly "shouts" "Watch out for snakes!" despite the fact that the character ''obviously isn't speaking'' and the quality of the line's audio not matching the rest of the movie.[[note]]The actors actually do show some movement and reactions that seem to match with that dialogue, but it comes a full three or four seconds after the lines in question, with nary a sound from them that time.[[/note]] As such, "Watch out for snakes!" has become a RunningGag on ''Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000'' (where ''Eegah'' was shown), and went through a bit of MemeticMutation as well.
** Eegah himself was portrayed by Creator/RichardKiel but voiced by Arch Hall Sr. going [[UncreditedRole uncredited]] unlike his other roles in the film.
* ParodyRetcon: The film would tour Southern California, with the main cast dressed in costume as their characters (including Kiel), coming out on stage to intro the film - the crowd would hoot and holler, and even talk back to the characters on the screen. [[Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000 Sound familiar?]]
* RealLifeRelative: Hall, Sr. and Hall, Jr., of course. Marilyn Manning was Hall Sr.'s secretary at the time.
* TroubledProduction: Oh, boy. For starters, the sound technician accidentally pressed '''Play''' instead of '''Record''' at one point, forcing Hall, Sr. to re-dub and foley a bunch of scenes himself. This led to him doing all of Eegah's lines in the film.
