Trivialidades:

Early versions of the film claimed that they were related to a Stephen King work. King did write a short story called "The Lawnmower Man", but it was completely different to the movie. King sued the film makers, and had his name removed from the film.

Errores:

Errores Reales: Dr. Angelo, remarking on Jobe's progress with Latin, says that he himself took a year to learn just the Latin alphabet, which is still in use, plus a few letters, as the English alphabet. (In mitigation, he could be referring to the difficulty in reading ancient manuscripts, though this seems unlikely in context.)

Citas:

Jobe Smith: I am god here!

Banda de Sonido:

Must see the uncut film to enjoy

This film once had the great master's name (Stephen King) on it, but he did right to sue them, as it has nothing to do with his story.

It is a good film all the same but you must see the uncut film to enjoy it as it is almost 40 minutes longer. There are some great efects in the film and, like always, the end leaves room for part 2 which is out now and not great. So this film is worth getting, but if you are a Stephen King fan this film is not a King movie
