New Line Cinema had obtained the rights to the Stephen King short story "The Lawnmower Man", and the producers also had an unrelated script called "Cyber God". For economical reasons, they simply placed King's title on the production of "Cyber God", and early promotional material with that claim even went public. King was furious at this abuse of his name, and he sued the studio to have his name and title removed from the film and promotion. The studio refused, but was eventually ordered to pay ten thousand dollars and full profits to King.
The eight minutes of computer generated effects took seven people eight months to complete on a budget of $500,000.
It was discovered through FBI tapes that this was former Waco cult leader David Koresh's favorite movie.
Several of the symbols Jobe (Jeff Fahey) sees flying at him during his first VR treatment are demon evocation seals taken from the infamous Key of Solomon.
The moan-like, eerie sound effect in the "access granted" scene, where Jobe finds the backdoor, is taken from the scene in The Evil Dead (1981) where the evil spirit dies.
"Dr. Lawrence Angelo: This is all so new. Jobe Smith: It's not new. I realized that nothing we've been doing is new. We haven't been tapping into new areas of the brain - we've just been awakening the most ancient. This technology is simply a route to powers that conjurers and alchemists used centuries ago. The human race lost that knowledge and now I'm reclaiming it through virtual reality. Dr. Lawrence Angelo: You're moving too fast. Even with all these new abilities, there are dangers. Man may be able to evolve a thousand-fold through this technology, but the rush must be tempered with wisdom."
"Jobe Smith: ...my birth cry will be the sound of every phone on this planet ringing in unison."
