Anecdotes
United Artists marketed "Motel Hell" as a straightforward horror film rather than a black comedy/horror film, fearing that any quirkiness in the theatrical trailers or the theatrical release posters would drive away potential audiences. However, the tagline "You might just die...laughing!" still appeared on several of the aforementioned theatrical release posters.

Gaffes
The events in the film supposedly take place during summer according to Boris' makeshift gravestone (Boris Tulinsky 3-5-1923 to 6-7-1980) but later in it, the two young women that encounter the fake herd of cows are dressed in winter clothing, are talking about a ski instructor, and have skis strapped to the roof of their car, implying that it takes place during winter.

Crédits fous
The film's opening title image is the neon-lit sign "Motel Hello" with the "o" at the end of it burned out. The entire sign is later shown to be slowly short circuiting during the closing credits and finally exploding after said closing credits end.

Versions alternatives
Although the UK theatrical version of the film was uncut, the 1986 UK Warner Bros. video release of it had to have two seconds cut from it to remove a closeup shot of a chainsaw wound during the ending. The 2002 ILC DVD release of it, however, was completely uncut.

I Wonder about the Karmic Implications of These Acts

Motel Hell is a near perfect film. It is gross, funny, intelligent, and altogether VERY well done. There is so much great dialogue and excellent symbolism, and great acting. Rory Calhoun is the most likable evil human flesh farmer I've ever seen. There really isn't too much gore in this film, but it grosses you out on so many levels, especially if you eat meat, which I do. The ending, while being awesome in its own way, leaves a little something to be desired. All in all, if you love horror, and you have a sense of humor, check this one on out. I liked it more the second time I saw it, which is a sign of quality.
