¿Sabías que...?
- CuriosidadesDue to the controversial lack of recognition for El hombre elefante (1980), make-up and industry technological contributions became recognized by the Academy Awards in 1981. Make-up artist Rick Baker was the first to receive an Oscar in the new category. William Tuttle was the first make-up effects artist to receive an honorary Oscar, for his work on Las siete caras del Dr. Lao (1964). At 31, Baker was also the youngest person to win the award, a record that was later tied by Tami Lane for Las crónicas de Narnia: El león, la bruja y el armario (2005).
- PifiasRepeated mentions of werewolf attacks during a full moon are ignored when David undergoes his transformation on two consecutive nights. There is only one full moon during a lunar cycle. If the moon is full on a Saturday night, for example, it cannot be truly full on the next night, Sunday.
- Citas
David: I want you to arrest me, you asshole!
Bobby in Trafalgar Square: There's no call for that kind of language.
David: Queen Elizabeth is a man! Prince Charles is a faggot! Winston Churchill was full of shit!
Bobby in Trafalgar Square: That's enough.
David: No! Let go of me!
Alex: David, please!
David: Shakespeare's French! Fuck! Shit! Cunt! Shit!
- Créditos adicionalesKermit the Frog and Miss Piggy star as themselves.
- Versiones alternativasUniversal Studios re-mixed the film's monaural soundtrack to Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS for the 20th anniversary "Collector's Edition" DVD, replacing the older sound effects and adding some new ones (see also Tiburón (1975)).
- Extra thunderclap sound effects were added in the scene when David and Jack are walking in the moors and it starts to rain.
- The first werewolf can now be heard growling in the rear channels as it circles David and Jack. A louder growl has been added to the rear-left channel after Jack says "It's circling us" to make the audience jump.
- All the gunshots and car crash sound effects have been replaced.
- The train in the "London tube" scene can now be heard moving from one channel to another
- Despite already being bad enough, the entire mix is inexplicably pitched down a half-pitch and sounds very different from the original mix.
