- Creator Killer: This film did so awful at the box office and with audiences that it ruined any good will Richard Kelly had with Donnie Darko that wasn't ruined with Southland Tales.
- Write Who You Know: Some characteristics of Norma (club foot) and Arthur (NASA employee) were based off director Richard Kelly's parents. His father did work for NASA and co-designed the camera for the Viking Mars Landers, while his mother has a crippled foot due to an X-Ray mishap.
