• The entire film was shot at one of the studios in Los Angeles.
• The film was released in the US only on video.
• According to David Trippet (who was the executive producer of the first three films in the franchise), this film was originally intended as a parody of Ron Howard's science fiction film 'Apollo 13' (1995). Someone from the management of 'Trimark Pictures' saw a poster for Howard's film and ordered that Tom Hanks' face, from that film, be replaced with the Leprechaun's face. After that, work began on the script.
