The name of the mysterious white masked killer was "Scarman".
The acronym on the film can read FARTS and stood for "Film Audiovisual Radio and Television School". This is actually a spoof anagram parody of the real life AFTRS which stands for the "Australian Film, Television and Radio School".
The gruesome mask that the Make-Up Effects (MEG) team devised took up to four and a half-hours to glue on to
the actor and required more than a dozen versions. Scarman's mask was moulded to
Frank Roberts' head by first taking a bust impression, and later embellished with
fine detail and teeth, that were glued in one by one. It meant the mask could not be
worn by any other actor.
One character in the film makes mention that he is working on the film because "Mad Max 4" was pushed back. In reality, this has been true, as development on this picture was occurring around the early 2000s, with Mad Max: Fury Road (2015) finally first releasing in 2015, about fifteen years after Cut (2000).
One of two South Australian movies filmed in South Australia featuring singer-actress Kylie Minogue. The pictures are Cut (2000) and Sample People (2000). Both titles debuted in the year 2000 and were both shot around the same time.
