Did You Know?
| Trivia | The character and murderous career of Dr. Martout was based on fact. The real doctor, very much as depicted in the film, was a Dr. Petiot, who was tried and convicted of 26 murders, but suspected of over 100. He was executed by guillotine. See more » |
| Goofs | Despite being set in France circa 1942, all of Anna Gaylor's costumes and hair styles are strictly 1957. See more » |
