Trivia:
While shooting one of the fire scenes for the movie, a special effect fire got out of control and burned the whole set down, including the studio stage it was built into and almost all of the crews equipment. Nobody was seriously injured and filming resumed the very next day with equipment being hauled in from all over the world. moreFAQ

When Christian Alvart invited me to join "Kinowelt's" producer Boris Schoenfelder for a sneak-preview, I wasn't sure what to expect. Christians reputation as shooting star among young German directors raised high expectations and secret fears... Could he come up with something even more chilling than "Antikoerper"? After 15 minutes I was ready to climb U N D E R my seat. This is one of the most scary movies I've ever seen and by the way - a film that is a typical Alvart-borderline-case, oczillating between crime, suspense and horror. Brilliant actors, great dialogue, not to mention the shock effects... In the age of trans-generic movies Christian's work deserves to be called outstanding. If CASE 39 comes to your town, don't miss it: It's a case you will remember for a lifetime!
