Anecdotes
After the release of the film, Russell Mulcahy received a surprise phone call from Steven Spielberg who was curious on how he achieved some of the effects in the dream sequence such as the shot of the two moons.

Gaffes
The car Beth is driving is a Ford. It has the brand tag in the front of the car in some scenes and then in other scenes, the brand tag isn't there.

Citations
Jake Cullen: [to Beth] There's something about blasting the shit out of a razorback that brightens up my whole day.

Autres versions
The original Australian version of the film was edited down to secure a more commercial M rating (known as the "theatrical version") by removing 4 scenes of graphic violence. The cut scenes included footage of explicit gore and blood-spurts in the death of 3 of the characters plus the final killing of the razorback itself. The UK Anchor Bay and Australian Umbrella releases contain the theatrical version, though the 4 deleted scenes are available as extras on the Australian DVD.

A film that could have been better...and worse.

The best thing about this Australian production is Russell Mulcahey's direction which gives this admittedly doofy material a veneer of class. (Although he does have a tendency to overuse the fog machine.)

What this film has going against it however is Gregory Harrision's ineffectual performance as the "hero". I remember him spending most of the film getting beaten up and/or falling down.

If this had focused on the "Moby Dick" aspect of the storyline, that has a grizzled old man searching the outback for the killer boar that killed his baby, it would have been a bit stronger in the storyline department. As it is now, it's OK.
