Wissenswertes
The scream let loose by Donna (Mariska Hargitay) was a stock sound effect. Mariska Hargitay has a naturally deep, husky voice and could not produce a scream loud or high pitched enough for the liking of the director.

Patzer
Grizzel is shown holding the goblet before Jonathan sets it down for them to drink from it.

Zitate
Dick: They call me Dick, but you can call me... Dick.

Alternative Versionen
Originally opened with an R-rating in Las Vegas, Nevada in November of 1984. Shortly after, 12 seconds of footage were removed from the nationwide American release of Ghoulies in order to achieve a PG-13 rating.

Puppets with teeth

A surprise hit in the horror film-drenched 1980s that spawned several sequels, GHOULIES was one ii a long line of puppet movies from the old Empire Pictures, the same folks who would soon bring us RE-ANIMATOR. In GHOULIES, a young man moves into an old mansion and before you know it, he is attempting to conjure up a bunch of hellish critters to do his bidding. Soon enough, he has them going after his enemies. The ghoulies themselves are hand puppets that look pretty ferocious for hand puppets. The conjurer, played by an insufferable actor named Peter Liapus, has been possessed by a dark spirit that resides in the old house. A little too much time is spent on the guy and his conjuring, but once the ghoulies get going, watch out! This comedy horror film stands out among many similar flicks from that era. It was obviously inspired by GREMLINS, but in the end it in no way resembles that now-forgotten classic. Worth a look if you can buy the idea of puppet monsters. PUPPETMASTER had the same theme and look, and was also an Empire Pictures job, if I am not mistaken.
