    • Trivia
      The scene where the "witch" flies out of the cargo compartment on the airplane took several takes. The actor couldn't easily open the cargo door on the B707, so actual airline employees were used.
    • Goofs
      Redfern asks if the farmer is Amish, and the farmer replies Mennonite. He wouldn't have known about either in Boston in 1691.
    • Quotes

      Giles Redferne: [admonishing Kassandra after stopping her crashing the car] Let your attention lie before you, not beside you.

      Kassandra: Check this! Some guy from the seventeenth century telling ME how to drive. How quick they learn!

    Richard E Grant, brilliant with his dodgy Scottish accent
    This film is a classic. Richard E Grant puts on a wonderful performance although his Scottish accent isnt as strong enough to be believable as it has been toned down so that Americans can understand it. The effects are typically eighties adding to the fun. A good film to watch when you're in the mood for something a bit different and not too serious.
