After seeing Where the Wild Things Are (2009), Dan Wells called Billy O'Brien and said he loved the kid who played the lead, that by the time the project got off the ground, he'd be old enough, and that his loneliness and anger were perfect for John. O'Brien agreed to look into it, but before he could, one of the producers e-mailed O'Brien saying he had a guy who'd be great for that serial killer thing he was working on. It was the same person, Max Records.
The shots of Crowley exercising are from Christopher Lloyd's actual routine. His daily workouts were noted by Director Billy O'Brien, and he thought the robotic, absent movement was so eerie, he had to get Robbie Ryan to film it. The footage would later be considered an iconic moment in the film.
Based on the young adult novel series, beginning with the book of the same name. No sequels are in production (due, in part, to the independent nature of the movie), but the series has six books in total.
The author of the novel, Dan Wells, has a brief cameo as a police officer near the closing of the film.
Dan Wells liked the concept of Crowley killing a neighbor so he could dance with his wife so much, he joked he was upset he hadn't written it.
"April: You know, we can arrange for you to see a grief counselor if you'd like. John Wayne Cleaver: I think that seeing a psychotherapist to talk about my first therapist seems kinda disloyal"
"Brooke Watson: Are you It? John Wayne Cleaver: Am I what? Brooke Watson: The clown from "It," that Stephen King book. John Wayne Cleaver: No. I was thinking about dressing up as my mother but I was worried what my therapist would say. Rob Anders: You gonna juggle for us, freak? John Wayne Cleaver: That's a really clever costume. You know, it looks great. It's really inventive and the bullet hole looks... really authentic. Rob Anders: You know this is a party for normal people? Right? So why don't you go home to your undertaking slut of a mother. Alright? Rob Anders: What are you smiling about? John Wayne Cleaver: I've been clinically diagnosed with sociopathy, Rob. To me, you're an object. You know, you're a thing. You're about as important to me as a cardboard box. And... the thing about cardboard boxes... is that... you know they're totally boring on the outside, right? But... sometimes, if you cut 'em open there'll be something interesting inside. You know, and so, while you're saying all these boring things to me I'm thinking about what it'd be like to cut you open. But I don't wanna... I don't wanna be that person. And so, I have a rule that anytime somebody says something to me where I think about, you know, cuttin' 'em. I just smile and I say something nice. So that's why I say to you, Rob Anders, of 232, Carnation Street. You are a really great guy. Rob Anders: You're a freak. Brooke Watson: You're not a freak."
