* CreatorBacklash: Rose [=McGowan=] doesn't look fondly on her time on this movie, accusing Robert Rodriguez of betraying her trust by putting a Harvey Weinstein {{Expy}} in there that her character kills and then selling the movie to him. The director disputed the latter claims however, providing evidence that the Weinsteins had been involved from the beginning and the film was part of his contract with Miramax, and stating that she had been involved in the script process and she had signed onto it with knowledge of that scene being filmed.

** Robert Rodriguez wanted to make the film around the time he was shooting ''Film/TheFaculty'', expecting that zombie movies would come back into fashion. After that, he got attached to other projects, and then the zombie craze indeed came in the early 2000s.

* FoilerFootage: Partly to avoid traumatizing his son Rebel Rodriguez with knowledge of his disturbing death scene, Creator/RobertRodriguez shot several scenes with Tony surviving all the way to the end of the movie. Some of this is seen on the DVD, but apparently the only complete edit with this footage is a private copy of the Rodriguez family's.

-->I remember telling Creator/ElijahWood and Creator/JoshHartnett, all these young actors, that zombie movies were dead and hadn't been around in a while, but that I thought they were going to come back in a big way because they’d been gone for so long. I said, "We've got to be there first". I had [a script] I’d started writing. It was about 30 pages, and I said to them, "There are characters for all of you to play". We got all excited about it, and then I didn't know where to go with it. The introduction was about as far as I'd gotten, and then I got onto other movies. Sure enough, the zombie [movie] invasion happened and they all came back again, and I was like, "Ah, I knew that I should've made my zombie film".
