Trivia
20th Century Fox didn't think highly of the project so insisted that it be shot on studio backlots to keep the budget down. See more »Goofs
Revealing mistakes: Juan Martinez throws a knife that lands right next to Farnley's foot. If you look closely you can see a thin wire attached to the end of the knife, indicating that first the scene was filmed with the knife being jerked backwards by the wire, then the film was played in reverse, to give the desired illusion of the knife landing at Farnley's feet.
