Trivia:
Because of the strong sexual implications of the French title, some distributors added several graphic sex scenes in order to exploit that feature in the French adult film circuit. None of the original cast and crew were credited in that version apart from Jane Merrow and Sarah Lawson who were both doubled for the additional scenes. moreGoofs:
Continuity: The islanders in the pub turn off all the lights so as not to attract the aliens. In the next scene the lights are on. moreFAQ

It's a pity that the British film industry gave up on a cult and, in my opinion, enjoyable series of horror flicks. "Island Of Terror" being another example of this genre...
