Movie Quote(s):
- [last lines] Michael: I am Michael. I take care of the place while the master is away.
-
Torgo: I am Torgo. I take care of the place while the Master is away.
-
Torgo: There is no way out of here. It'll be dark soon. There is no way out of here.
-
Torgo: There is nothing to fear, madam. The Master likes you. Nothing will happen to you. He likes you. Margaret: Likes me? I thought you said he was dead. Torgo: Dead? No, madam. Not dead the way you know it. He is with us always. Not dead the way you know it. He is with us always.
-
Margaret: Mike, I don't like this. Mike: It's nothing to worry about. It's only your imagination.
Movie Trivia:
- The scenes featuring two teenagers who are hassled by the cops while necking in their car were added because actress Joyce Molleur broke her leg during filming, and was unable to perform her original role.
-
Filmed entirely with a handheld camera that could only record thirty-two seconds of film at a time. The film was shot without sound; all the lines were later dubbed by only three people - two men and one woman. The little girl who plays Debbie cried when she first heard her dubbed voice.
-
The real reason John Reynolds (Torgo) appears to have big knees and walks funny is because his character is supposed to be a satyr. Reynolds designed his own prosthetics to make himself look like he had goat's feet. (Note how the wife gasps when she first looks down his feet, which the viewer does not get to see.)
-
Torgo was originally named Igor.
-
The film was shot in two and a half months with a budget of about $19,000.
