1* EnsembleDarkHorse: Creator/DoraBryan's Auntie Cora is considered by many of the film's haters to be the best part of the film, despite only having two scenes.
2* OneSceneWonder: Creator/ZsaZsaGabor as UsefulNotes/MataHari. With less than ten minutes of screentime, Gabor gives a performance that is camp, alluring, and hilarious, even BreakingTheFourthWall just as well as Creator/FrankieHowerd does.
3* RetroactiveRecognition:
4** Blitzen is played by Stanley Lebor, who would later be best known for playing Howard Hughes in ''Series/EverDecreasingCircles''.
5** Creator/BobHoskins makes his film debut here as the recruiting Sergeant.
6** The newsboy is played by Mike Grady, who would later be best known for playing Ken Mills in ''Series/CitizenSmith''.
7** A French Officer is played by Robert Gillespie, who would later be best known for playing Dudley Rush in ''Keep It in the Family''.
8** Mata Hari's maid, Magda, is played by Creator/PatriciaQuinn, who would later be best known for playing Magenta in ''Film/TheRockyHorrorPictureShow''.
9* {{Sequelitis}}: [[Series/UpPompeii The series]] is regarded as a classic, and [[Film/UpPompeii the first film]] is a decent enough adaptation. While opinions on ''Film/UpTheChastityBelt'' weren't nearly as positive, this film was hated on release.
