Trivia

Due to the film's low budget no live birds were used for the bird attack scene. Instead the attack was created by superimposing footage of flying birds over the footage of the running cast. See more »

Goofs

Revealing mistakes: When they're showing close-ups of the evil frogs, one frog is obviously thrown into the shot because it lands on its back. See more »

Quotes

Jason Crockett: I still believe man is master of the world.
Pickett Smith: Does that mean he can't live in harmony with the rest of it?
