TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

One of the reasons the film now enjoys cult status is because of its blackly comic last line. Ironically, Harlan Ellison hated this and actively campaigned to have it removed.

At a science-fiction convention, there was a pre-release screening of this film. At the end, when writer Harlan Ellison came on stage and invited comments, the most common one was that the portion of the movie taking place in "The Underground" was really slow-moving (a polite way of saying "boring"). Ellison was very defensive about this and responded to the effect that The Underground was a boring, stultifying place and the movie was intended to convey that. The audience did not find this to be a satisfying answer.

Ray Manzarek (as Ray Manzarec), keyboardist from The Doors, was a musician on this movie.

According to "Cult Movies 2," a sequel was planned called "A Girl And His Dog," but the dog died shortly after the movie's release.

After about 600 auditions, Tim McIntire (who was also the film's composer) landed the voice part of Blood.

Popular Dialogues

"[last lines] Blood: Well, I'd certainly say she had marvelous judgment, Albert... if not particularly good taste."

"Blood: I hope the next time you play with yourself, you go blind."
