Curiosidades
Wes Craven compared his work with actor Ernest Borgnine to John Carpenter's work with Donald Pleasance in the original La noche de Halloween (1978). He states that Borgnine was the first "big name actor" he had worked with and was at first intimidated by the actor.

Pifias
The cult members only accuse female characters of being the Incubus. In folklore, however, an Incubus is an exclusively male demon, the counterpart to the exclusively female Succubus. **The "incubus" in this case actually was a man, who was living as a woman, so this isn't entirely a goof.**

Citas
[in reference to Martha's land]
Vicky Anderson: If I owned a piece of property like this and I kicked the bucket, my parents would start building condos on it on the way home from the funeral!

Créditos adicionales
The end credits start rolling before the narrator's dialogue is finshed.

Versiones alternativas
In the British version, to avoid what they might call confusion, they omitted the "finale" in which the incubus ascends from hell. This version runs 98 minutes.

"We Are The Kindred Of God! We Have No Business With The Serpents!"...

When a farmer is killed in his barn, his wife, Martha (Maren Jensen) finds herself up against a local Amish-like group, known as the Hittites. When Martha's friends, Lana and Vicky (Sharon Stone and Susan Buckner) arrive for a visit, horror ensues. It seems that someone is bumping off believers and non-believers alike, making an already bad situation much worse!

Ernest Borgnine is perfectly glum as the stolid Isaiah, leader of the Hittites. This is easily his best role since THE DEVIL'S RAIN.

Director Wes Craven pulls out all the stops here, using spiders, snakes, chickens, religious madness, Sharon Stone in awesome nightwear, and Ernest Borgnine in a beard to incite terror! Sort of a wacky giallo, complete with black-gloved killer, there's much enjoyment to be had!

P.S.- The final conflict in the farmhouse, and the hellish epilogue must be witnessed to be believed!...
