TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

According to Anthony Cardoza, the rabbit at the end was not scripted, a wild baby jackrabbit wandered into the shot.

Shot without sound. To avoid having to sync a lot of sound in post-production, the actors turned away from the camera when speaking, and cupped their hands over their mouths when shouting.

Tor Johnson's final starring role. He had one more uncredited role in Head (1968).

The setting was based on the real-life Yucca Flat, which has been called "the most irradiated, nuclear-blasted spot on the face of the earth." The acual shooting locations were in California: Santa Clarita (desert scenes), Saugus (airplane scenes) and Van Nuys (opening scene interior). In 1970, 86 workers were exposed to radiation during the Yucca Flat Baneberry Test. In March 2009 Time Magazine identified the accident as one of the world's worst nuclear disasters.

The car pulled over was not a Volkswagen but a Renault rear engine convertable.
