- AnecdotesThe shot of the topless redhead in the cemetery that briefly appears in the montage after Barbara asks Harry what he is thinking about (when they are getting into the plane) is from Ed Wood's softcore 'horror' film 'Orgy of the Dead' (1965).
- GaffesThere is a red hand-held fire extinguisher visible in Harry's car on the passenger floorboard at around 8:40 into the movie when he's driving through the city.
Harry's car is a collector classic, and as an enthusiast, it would not be the least bit out of the ordinary for him to carry a fire extinguisher on board.

This film bounces between being yet another stupid sixties oddity, to an almost forgotten work of sheer genius.
There are moments where you'll question whether the cast or crew were on some dodgy medication, and others where you'll think "blimey. That's not too bad." Some of the elements are high comedy - for example one character uses a variety of items (melon, whipping cream, french stick) from a shopping basket in a fight scene, but at the same time the film maintains a certain darkness. The monitors come across as perhaps the most polite but menacing characters seen for a long time.
Worth your time.
