Trivia
After the movie's moderate success in the US, Álex de la Iglesia sold the rights to an American remake (which would be directed by de la Iglesia himself) and was offered the director's chair in 'Alien: Resurrection' (1997). Though neither project came to fruition, de la Iglesia still directed his next movie in the US, 'Perdita Durango' (1997).
Quotes
Cura:
Well, it's fundamental. lt inspired me to see the Apocalypse not as an allegory but as an equation. Each letter has its own number. So, for example... Daleth is worth four, and Synn is worth three hundred, so we can...
Goofs
In lunch scene, the Priest meets with José María for second time, and calls him by his name. However, neither José María nor nobody told him José María's name. Last time he spoke about him before (with Mina), he said that he didn't know his name.
Crazy Credits
Jaime Blanch's, David Pinilla's, Antonio Dechent's and Ignacio Carreño's characters are listed as "Toyota". These characters were replaced in later drafts of the scripts as "assailants". In the movie, they are called "Limpia Madrid", but credits still call them "Toyota." This is because they drive a Toyota car.
