IMDbWillis H. O'Brien and Pete Peterson began filming the special effects of this film in a large remodeled dressing room at the Tepeac Studios in Mexico City, but when money became tight they finished the picture in Peterson's garage in Encino, California.
As the scorpion attacks and derails the passenger train, the label "Lionel Lines" is clearly seen on the side of the locomotive's coal tender.
That giant worm with the "octopus-like arms" seen in this film is a prop from the unused spider pit sequence from the original King Kong (1933).
A typical Willis O'Brien touch - in a long shot of the cage descending into the cave, a tiny stop motion bat flies across the screen. Only O'Brien would add another day's work to a scene where it would be barely noticed.
The sounds of the scorpions are the same sounds as the ant chirps in Them! (1954).
"Hank Scott: [after hearing an onimous noise] Ordinarily I've got nothing against moonlit nights, but I'll be glad to get by this one."
"Hank Scott: [in a laboratory] One question, doctor... Dr. Velazco: I hope I can answer it. Hank Scott: Well, the alcohol, the distilled water, the salt solution - I can uderstand that, but what's the tequila for? Dr. Velazco: Well, in your country I believe they call it a coffee break."
