Trivia
The shot where the camera quickly zooms in on the couple was actually done in reverse. A camera was attached to a truck and driven in reverse, starting from the couple until they can't be seen anymore.

Goofs
As the couple are lying on the ground kissing in the opening scene, they both turn their heads to look when they hear the lawnmower. When the scene cuts to the POV of the mower heading towards them, they're looking in the opposite direction.

Crazy credits
After the closing credits is a scene in which a hedge trimmer starts up on its own, followed by the words: "HEDGES - Just when you thought it was safe to trim".

Alternate versions
The German video version (rated 'Not under 16') released in 1989 by UFA Video omits 7 seconds of violence.

Connections
Referenced in Tromeo and Juliet (1996)

more funny than scary!!!

another cheesy but hilarious film by TROMA. This film is nothing but a funny remake of JAWS. Instead of a shark, it's a pumped up lawnmower, instead of on a beach, it's a golf club course. This film is not to be taken seriously, but if u do watch it, there will be an urge to turn off the movie. At least forward it to the part were they start to hunt the "lawnmower". (just like in jaws)Instead of a boat, it's a van. I'm very surprised the actors and actresses sign on to make a film like this. Again, this movie is not to be taken seriously!!!!!
