Before filming started, author H.G. Wells told everyone connected with the film how much he'd hated Fritz Lang's film Metropolis (1927) and how he wanted them to do the opposite of what Lang (whom he called "Lange") and his crew had done.
The date on the newspaper in the scene in which the war ends is September 21, 1966, which would have been the 100th birthday of H.G. Wells.
It was reported that H.G. Wells, the author of the novel on which the movie was based, actually began directing the movie, but his inexperience resulted in Director William Cameron Menzies taking over.
Several movie critics in the U.S. criticized H.G. Wells's screen adaptation of his book for its failure to adequately address class struggle. The complaint rang with a tone of irony for Wells, whose book had been criticized by literary critics for containing too much of the author's analysis of class struggle and his socialist-leaning political beliefs.
Film historians consider this to be one of Great Britain's first major science-fiction films.
