The original ending was supposed to link Divine to the Charles Manson murders, but when it was discovered that the Manson family was responsible, the ending was changed to what it is in the final film. The original ending would have fed the publicity gag that Divine was responsible for Sharon Tate's murder.
The giant lobster was built in one and a half weeks by cast member Vincent Peranio, who would go on to a career as a film production designer. It cost about thirty-seven dollars to make.
The re-mastered Criterion version of Multiple Maniacs has had some songs replaced/substituted. The Elvis Presley songs "Jailhouse Rock" and "Just Because" have been taken out and replaced by similar pieces by George S. Clinton, as has the music on the opening credits.
The film had its first opening in a rented out church basement in Baltimore.
Divine got the fur coat he wears in the movie as a Christmas present from John Waters.
"Mr. David: I love you so fucking much, I could *shit*."
"Mr. David: Yes folks, this isn't any cheap X-rated movie or any 5th rate porno play, this is the show you want! Lady Divine's cavalcade of perversions, the sleaziest show on earth! Not actors, not paid impostors, but real actual filth who have been carefully screened in order to present to you the most flagrant violation of natural law known to man! These assorted sluts, fags, dykes and pimps know no bounds! They have committed acts against God and nature, acts that by their mere existence would make any decent person recoil in disgust!"
