Goofs The opening scenes of Croft's attack on Leslie and Paul and the police department's investigation of the attack are supposed to take place sometime between 20 to 30 years before the main events of the film (which take place decades later in the early 1970s), but the men's long hair and the cut of the detective's suit in these scenes are clearly contemporary to 1972 (the year of the film's release).

Crazy Credits At the end of the film, the words "Fin -- ou peut etre pas," appear on the screen, which are French for "The End -- or maybe not." See more »
Quotes James Eastman: [voiceover] My mother found it difficult to tell me that I wasn't like other children; I could never share a life with whole human beings. I slowly learned that the thing that raped my mother and fathered me was no living feeling man, but a malignant force of cancer that refused to be destroyed. It wasn't only her blood my mother gave to keep me alive, her youth and her own life was sucked up into the syringe that fed me.
