Movie Trivia:
- Many of the scenes of the Martian surface were filmed at Zabriskie Point in Death Valley, California.
-
Victor Lundin has recently (as of early 1999) written and recorded a "Robinson Crusoe on Mars" song.
-
The Martian spacecraft are left-overs from The War of the Worlds (1953). Director Byron Haskin was involved in both projects, although George Pal is often given sole credit for the earlier classic.
-
While filming in Death Valley, the cast and crew were ordered not to touch any of the plant life due to the fact that they were filming in a national park area and most of the plant life was federally protected.
-
The lobby card for this movie has an official-looking statement: "This film is Scientifically Authentic ... It is only one step ahead of present reality!"
