Trivia
Both Jennifer Lynch and Vincent D'Onofrio have stated they would have preferred that the title of this film be "Rabbit".

Goofs
When Bob freaks out in his garage after having flashbacks, you can see a male crew member wearing a baseball cap in the side mirror of the taxi.

Quotes
Bob: Without education, you're fucked. I mean, you've seen some things. I've showed you some things for sure, but you haven't understood them. You ever do a puzzle? You know the kind of puzzle that has the picture on the outside of the box? That's what people are. Pictures on the outside, pieces inside.

Crazy credits
The credits play over sounds of Rabbit in the house. There is no music. Among the sounds are what appear to be Rabbit cutting out an article for the scrapbook, exiting the garage, and leaving in the taxi cab.

Alternate versions
The throat slitting scene was originally more graphic, but was cut to avoid an NC-17 rating. It can be seen in the bonus features of the DVD and Blu-Ray release.

Another Jennifer Lynch twist!

This is a really excellent film, a real psychological horror, no gore but you get the idea and have to use your imagination, and the performances are superb...the twist is brilliant, totally caught me off guard, jaw to the floor! But then again, I have watched Surveillance so should have expected something...if you haven't do!
