Curiosidades
The producers had to fight the Production Code office, or what was left of it by this time, to get the word "pregnant" into the film. Even then, the word was deleted in some parts of the country by local censors. The novel was further bowdlerized by having no discussion in the film between Bud and Dorothy about the possibility of her having an abortion, and the pills Bud gives her are said by him to be vitamins and are in fact simply poison to kill her - whereas in the novel they are intended to induce a termination of pregnancy.

Erros de gravação
Near the end, Gordon is riding to the mine in a Cadillac limousine that has air conditioning, as indicated by small air scoops on both sides behind the back doors. The next shots (after the accident) show a different Cadillac without them. Cars of this era with factory installed air conditioning had half of the system in the trunk, requiring outside air via those little air scoops.

Citações
Bud Corliss: It's not right.
Dorothy Kingship: What?
Bud Corliss: For anyone to love somebody as much as I love you.

OK thriller

If you're looking for an adaptation of the Ira Levin book--this isn't it. Also the book would be impossible to film. That aside this is OK murder mystery-thriller. I was lucky enough to see it letter-boxed on TCM--it looks great! However a film dealing with a psycho and murders he commits does NOT need a theme song! Acting is OK--not good, not bad, just OK. The cast is attractive, the film is beautiful to look at and it's an interesting diversion for 1 1/2 hours. So, an OK thriller--nothing really inventive or different about it. At all costs, AVOID the terrible 1991 remake! That one is a TOTAL waste of time!
