Did you know
- TriviaStephen King says he was thinking about this film when he wrote his short story "Obits", about a young writer who discovers he can kill people by writing an obituary about them.

- GoofsAt 14 min Robert Kraft randomly placed a black pin in the cemetery map plot of W ISHAM and removed the white pin. At 21 min Kraft stated he took a white pin out "quite at random" and put a black pin in its place. Reverse of what he actually did.
- Quotes
Robert Kraft: Andy, you better get this straight right now. You heard that lieutenant. It's possible for some people to have things inside them that make other things happen. Nothing is impossible for a man like that, if he thinks about it hard enough.
- Crazy creditsIntro: Science has learned that Man possesses powers which go beyond the boundaries of the natural.
This is the story of one confronted by such strange forces within himself.

WARNING WARNING! I am not about to reveal the real ending of the movie, just the way it was originally written in the script. I am not, repeat NOT, telling you how the real movie ends.
As written Boone was to have locked himself in the caretakers shed which was suddenly surrounded by the walking corpses of all the people he had killed by sticking black pins into their grave markers. They do not attack but stand patiently outside calling for him to join them. Richard's grief is so great at having caused their deaths that he dies of a heart attack. Yeah but that ISN'T the way it ended. A "logical" explanation is tacked on that totally ruins the supernatural theme that we have spent the whole movie getting used to. I for one felt let down by this and THAT is why I say this movie is no classic. Yes it has some well staged moments but the copout ending spoils everything. If they had just stuck to the original ending it could have pre-dated NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD by 10 years.
