While he was all business in his scenes, Leslie Nielsen had a fart machine in his pocket during the shooting. He would let it go off during rehearsals, and just before Director George A. Romero would call "Action," causing Ted Danson and the crew to crack up with laughter.
Rice Krispies were used as maggots on the corpse's eyes in the first story, "Father's Day." In addition, real maggots were also utilized.
An alternate ending (scripted but then rewritten) for "Something to Tide You Over" found two policemen dropping by to investigate Richard's panicky-but-true claims of Harry and Becky invading his beach-house. When the policemen (predictably) laugh at his story - thinking he's drunk - Richard attempts to prove this by showing them camera footage of both undead stalkers. Instead, the television plays his incriminating conversation with Harry before and during the latter's burial-by-the-sea.Richard protests that he's been set up, that this is the wrong tape. "Oh, it's the right tape all right, pal!" the police answer. "And speaking of rights...!"The film smash-cuts from there to Richard's murder trial; he is convicted and sentenced to death row. Another smash-cut finds Richard in the gas chamber, laughing hysterically even while his life is choked out of him: "I can hold my breath for a long, long time...!"
The marble ashtray (which plays a major role in "Father's Day") is featured in all five of the film's segments if you look closely. 1 - "Father's Day" - obvious. Shown to viewers multiple times. 2 - "The Lonesome Death of Jordy Verrill" - next to the cash box at the Department of Meteors. 3 - "Something to Tide You Over" - on the nightstand next to Richard's bed. 4 - "The Crate" - on the writing desk when Henry writes the letter to Wilma. 5 - "They're Creeping Up on You!" - the soap dish when Upson Pratt is washing his hands. 6 - The wraparound story - on Billy's desk when he first starts stabbing the voodoo doll.
King was told to play Jordy like Wile E. Coyote, the way he looks when he goes off a cliff.
"Jordy Verrill: Meteor shit!"
"Wilma Northrup: You know what Henry? You're a regular barnyard exhibit. Sheep's eyes, chicken guts, piggy friends... and SHIT for BRAINS!"
