Compañía:

Baltimore Pictures

Trivialidades:

Many scenes, like Harry and Norman's conversation about making up the ULF report and dealing with Ted, were completely improvised.

Errores:

Continuidad: In the film, the code used to decode 'Jerry's' messages was flawed, some letters where incorrectly assigned so that "Harry" would read "Jerry". However, the rest of Harry's messages should have been jumbled too and Harry's first message should have read "Jallo. Jow era you. My name is Jerry", but it does not.

Citas:

Dr. Harry Adams: Calling Dr. Halperine... Dr. Beth Halperine... Please return to reality.

Good but not new

As I see that nobody did yet, I would like just to point out that the core of the science-fiction story is just the same as the movie "Forbidden Planet" (1956) (a milestone in science-fiction).
