- Banned in China: Because of the James Bulger murder (in which a boy was murdered by two ten year olds) at the time, and the BBFC objecting to the Villain Protagonist being a psychopathic little boy who murders people — including a four-year-old girl — and getting away with it, this film never saw the light of day in the U.K. (except for the RiffTrax version).
- Dueling Movies: Against The Good Son. The Good Son wins solely because Macaulay Culkin was huge at the time; while this film is only notable for being banned in the UK because of the James Bulger murder.
- He Also Did: The film was made by Robert F. Levy and Peter Abrams, the producers of Point Break (2015) (and Van Wilder) of all films.
- Playing Against Type:
- Brian Bonsall was known for his roles as mischievous but good-hearted kids. In the film, he portrays the title character, an Evil Orphan who murders entire families.
- John Diehl is usually cast as bad guys. In this film, he's a kindly adopted father.
- Uncredited Role: The actress who played Kelsey the first foster mother's sister was not credited.
