Trivia | The demon in this movie, Baron Samedi, is the same demon summoned in 1974's zombie film, Sugar Hill. Respectively, the clothing and characteristics of Samedi and the requirements and warnings concerning his summoning are also similar, reflecting his description in Haitian folklore. See more » |
