Trivia

Director Harrison Wall bought all three child actors, Jessica, Dominik and Jaymes, each a DVD copy of Stand by Me prior to the film shoot. They were all told to note the natural and relaxed style of acting and adopt it into their own performances. Without prompting, however, each actor returned after watching the DVD having found one character in the film that they identified with the most. As all three chose different characters, these became the foundations upon which "The Snatching" characters were based.

Crazy Credits

Andy McDandy is credited as playing the role of The Father despite being a fictional person - a character from Harrison Wall's CyberBeat in fact. The role of The Father was actually played by John Doughty (who also plays The Snatchers) who stepped in last minute after a cast member dropped out. Director Harrison Wall chose to credit John only as The Snatchers in order to avoid any direct hint that The Snatchers may have been the parents themselves.
