What's left behind the scenes

  • The scenes in the amusement park were filmed at "Old Chicago", the world's first indoor theme park and shopping mall. It was built in 1975 in a suburb of Chicago, Illinois, closed in 1980, and finally demolished in 1986.
  • A major star, Kirk Douglas (1916-2020), was cast in the lead role because the film's director, Brian De Palma, believed his previous film, "Carrie" (1976), hadn't earned enough at the box office without a screen presence that would draw an audience.
  • People with telekinetic abilities have a vein bulge on their forehead when they use their supernatural powers. This detail was written into the original script for "Carrie," but was not used due to a limited budget.
  • While preparing for the role of a person with telepathic and telekinetic abilities, Amy Irving visited a specialized clinic where she learned about the existence of different levels of consciousness.
  • James Belushi played a tiny role in the film, which was his first appearance in a feature film. He can be seen in the scene where Jillian and LaRue are walking on the beach; he stands in swimming trunks behind Raymond Danwood. Years later, this appearance became a topic of discussion on David Letterman's show, where he was a guest. Daryl Hannah (Pam, Cheryl's friend), Laura Innes (Jodi, Cheryl's friend), and Dennis Franz (Bob, the police officer Peter takes hostage) also made their debut roles in the film.
  • The special effects scene in which the character played by John Cassavetes (1929-1989) explodes was filmed as follows. First, the actor, covered in blood and shaking, was in the frame. Then, a lamp fell and shattered on the floor in the same spot, creating an instantaneous bright flash. During editing, the actor was replaced with a mannequin containing explosives, and the entire scene was filmed from different angles using high-speed cameras. The scene was shot on the second take.
