What's left behind the scenes

Supporters of the film online contributed $1,500,000 to the budget as investors.
The scene depicting the 'trashing' of a US presidential campaign headquarters replicates, shot-for-shot, the well-known viral meme video “Hitler Finds Out About…”, which overlays comedic subtitles onto a scene from the film “The Bunker”.
To film the shot of a Nazi machine gun firing in close-up, the front part of the German weapon was welded to a genuine Kalashnikov assault rifle to prevent malfunctions.
Working outside the Hollywood system, the creators produced 800 computer graphics shots, approved by The Hollywood Reporter, for $1.2 million (for comparison, the budget for computer special effects for "Transformers" is approaching $50 million).
The names of the Nazi spacecraft types – "Gold of the Rhine," "Twilight of the Gods," "Valkyrie," and "Siegfried" – are taken from the titles of Richard Wagner's operas from the "Ring of the Nibelung" cycle; Laibach’s music for the film is also based on themes from Wagnerian operas.
The US President (according to the film's chronology – Obama's successor) is an obvious parody of Republican Sarah Palin, the former Governor of Alaska, known for her shocking statements and poor geographical knowledge.
The idea of a treacherous attack by the Nazi space fleet on Earth came to screenwriter Jārmo Puskala in a sauna.
The names of the Nazi spacecraft types – "Gold of the Rhine," "Twilight of the Gods," "Valkyrie," and "Siegfried" – are taken from the titles of Richard Wagner's operas from the "Der Ring des Nibelungen" cycle; Laibach's music for the film is also based on themes from Wagnerian operas.
