    Storyline

    • Trivia
      The scene in which a car is thrown over a cliff was initially intended to be far more spectacular - the car was to fly over the cliff and crash down to the ground. Unfortunately, the sling rope snapped because effects crew members neglected to remove the stoppers from underneath the car's wheels. The result was what is seen in the final film, the car slowly tumbles over the edge and becomes caught on a tree.
    • Goofs
      When the farmer goes in his house to get supplies, the prop master is visible inside the doorway as he exits.

      Security Guard: What're ya gonna do with those *pies*, boys?

    • Crazy credits
      Film was released in 1988, but the ending credits claim copyright 1987
    • Alternate versions
      In the TV version before the puppet show the guy throws his popcorn bag over his head which is then tossed back at him. This is the reason he heads up to the puppet show.

    Deadly funny

    A friend of mine does not like comedy in horror. And I know he is not alone with that sentiment. So if you hate that as well, let me tell you: this movie is not for you. It mixes comedy with horror and does quite the swell job when doing so.

    The makers of this do not take it seriously either, but they take their craft serious. Well they do try to make the best of it. Whether it is to your taste or not, is a different question alltogether. Good effects for a low budget movie and overall real fun to watch
