Quiz
Christian Bale stated in an interview that he tried hard to contact Tobe Hooper for the role of Steven Barrows and even personally recorded and sent a screen test of himself, but was never called back. He instead focused on scoring the role of Bruce Wayne/Batman in Batman Begins (2005).

Blooper
When the killer reappears through the window he enters making a spectacular jump, even there is not enough space behind the window to execute it, as it is shown after he falls down.

Citazioni
Byron McLieb: I just wanted to welcome you guys. I know it's a bit of a shock with all the hub-bub and emergency personel, but we're really a quiet building... Did I give you the storage key?

Curiosità sui crediti
Every years thousands of people come to Hollywood to pursue their dreams. Some succeed. Some move back home... And some just disappear.

Versioni alternative
The US release was heavily censored to get an "R" rating rather than an "NC-17". The following scenes were edited:
The "drill kill" of the girl in the apartment was about 20-30 seconds longer, showing much more blood fly out of the back of her head, and the drill going all the way through her mouth. After the killer retracts the drill, he then begins drilling again into her head. Also, this scene is well-lit as opposed to the darkened version in the "R" rated cut.
The man getting his head sawed in half; this scene was much longer. More blood and grue flies out as the killer saws, and the aftermath of the top half of the man's head being ripped off was shown, and the camera lingers longer on it when it hits the ground.
The man being strapped to the table and killed was a bit longer. There were more hits with the hammer, more screams from the man, and a better view of the powder being poured on his head. A more grisly after-view of the man's lye-laden head was present afterward.

More horror, more crap.

This movie really is dire, I haven't seen a movie as bad as this for a while now. on the plus side it's still better than "House of 1000 corpses". I didn't expect the toolbox murders to be good, but I didn't think is would be this bad 1 out of 10 and that's being generous. The acting was awful too. Tobe Hooper hasn't made a decent movie for years. If anyone caught the episodes of Freddy's Nightmares that Tobe directed they were better than this so don't expect much if you haven't seen it. There is no real horror in this movie, it relies on using the same technique Alan Silvestri uses in "what lies beneath" in order to scare the audience by which I mean punching a silent moment with a loud noise to make them jump. Complete rubbish. We need more psychological horror.
