- Dawson Casting: The main characters are high school sophomores. Kellie Martin was 19, the others were in their twenties.
- Playing Against Type: In 1994, both Kellie Martin (in Life Goes On) and Tori Spelling (in Beverly Hills, 90210) were best-known for playing The Ingenue, so it was a leap for them to play a neurotic obsessive and an Alpha Bitch, respectively.
- Post-Release Retitle: Death of a Cheerleader was its UK export title, and when Lifetime picked it up for rerun, they renamed it to that since it fit well with their other examples of Gory Deadly Overkill Title of Fatal Death. The new title became so well-established that it was used for the 2019 remake.
- Those Two Actors: Kellie Martin and Tori Spelling had previously appeared together in Troop Beverly Hills.
