Curiosidades
David Cronenberg once called this the most frustrating film he'd ever made. The film was rushed through production - filming had to begin without a finished script and end within roughly two months so the financing would qualify as a tax write-off, forcing Cronenberg to write and shoot at the same time. Cronenberg also cited difficulty with and antagonism between the leads, particularly Patrick McGoohan and Jennifer O'Neill.

Erros de gravação
After the famous "exploding head" scene, there wasn't a drop of blood on Revok or the table.

Versões alternativas
The death of the first scanner ('Victor Del Grande' ) was filmed in two different ways: the theatrical release has Revok (Michael Ironside) causing his head to explode; an alternate take, featured in television versions, shows him dying of a grotesque heart attack instead. The Sci-Fi Network has shown the scene intact.

This was something else in 1981

What was once startling and shocking is now more humorous than anything else. This early Cronenberg film delivers his usual brand, but it doesn't stand the test of time. Between the infamous early head scene and the big confrontation ending scene, there is a lot of boredom, though some of it is okay. Some of the cast is a problem as well. Stephen Lack lacks talent and the more famous Jennifer O'Neill isn't much better and ludicrously looks like she stepped away from a magazine cover shoot. On the other hand, Patrick McGoohan overacts. I saw this when released and this was the first time I had seen Michael Ironside. He's rather effective here in a creep role that he would often repeat in his, thus far, whopping 282 credits listed here. The only other performers of interest here are Lawrence Dane & Robert A. Silverman in a small role. The special effects (all gore) hold up pretty well and for the uninitiated, this is a must for horror buffs.
