TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

The sound effect used when the socket prongs are released from the user's arms is actually a pudding can being opened.

Filming took nine days with one day of re-shoots.

This film was reportedly the first gay horror/science fiction film.

Writer/producer/director Sean Abley's direction to actor Matthew Montgomery upon seeing his lover's wrist socket was to "react like you're seeing the biggest cock you've ever seen!".

Actors Derek Long and Matthew Montgomery were both pleased that they were not asked to shave off all of their body hair for this film - a common practice for male actors in gay films.

Popular Dialogues

"[first lines] Dr. Emily Andersen: For some reason you were left with no burn marks; however, the current used your hands and feet as its escape route, so you'll probably have nerve damage in all four extremities. Bill Matthews: Permanent? Dr. Emily Andersen: Not necessarily, but you should prepare yourself for the very real possibility that you won't be returning to surgery."

"[last lines] Craig Murphy: Bill, don't. Bill Matthews: [punches Craig] I'll see you again. [climbs a fence into a High Voltage area] Craig Murphy: Bill... wait. Bill, wait! [also climbs the fence, following him] Craig Murphy: Bill, wait!"
