The time spent in the movie of the crew once they were miniaturized is in real time, taking up almost exactly one hour of the movie.
When filming the scene where the other crew members remove attacking antibodies from Raquel Welch for the first time, director Richard Fleischer allowed the actors to grab what they pleased. Gentlemen all, they specifically avoided removing them from Welch's breasts, with an end result that Fleischer described as a "Las Vegas showgirl" effect. He pointed this out to the cast members - and on the second try, the actors all reached for her breasts. Finally, Fleischer realized that he would have to choreograph who removed what from where, and the result is seen in the final cut.
The scenes of crew members swimming outside the sub were shot on dry soundstages with the actors suspended from wires. There was some additional hazard involved because, to avoid reflections from the metal, the wires were washed in acid to roughen them, which made them more likely to break. To create the impression of swimming in a resisting medium, the scenes were shot at fifty percent greater speed than normal, then played back at normal speed.
Medical schools, at least as late as the 1980s, showed clips from this movie to illustrate various concepts in human anatomy, physiology, and especially immunology.
A now defunct thrill ride at Disney's Epcot Center, called "Body Wars", was largely inspired by this movie, even though it is not a Disney movie. Director Richard Fleischer, however, also directed Disney's first science fiction movie, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (1954).
"[as the submarine enters the brain] Dr. Duval: Yet all the suns that light the corridors of the universe shine dim before the blazing of a single thought... Grant: ...proclaiming in incandescent glory the myriad mind of Man. Dr. Michaels: Very poetic, gentlemen. Let me know when we pass the soul. Dr. Duval: The soul? The finite mind cannot comprehend infinity, and the soul, which comes from God, is infinite. Dr. Michaels: Yes, but our time isn't."
"Dr. Duval: The medieval philosophers were right. Man is the center of the universe. We stand in the middle of infinity between outer and inner space, and there's no limit to either."
