• The plot of the film is based on a real event that occurred in Australia. On the night of August 17, 1980, Azaria Chamberlain, 9 weeks old, went missing from a tent when her parents decided to rest in nature. The girl's mother, Lindy Chamberlain, saw a wild dingo dog leaving the tent.
• In 1986, Azaria's jacket was found, in an area with many dingo dens, and the case of the missing child was reopened. In 1988, the charges against the girl's parents were dropped, and two years later, the Australian government ordered them to be compensated for the time they had spent in prison.
• Initially, it was planned for Dolph Lundgren to play the villainous alien.
• Mattias Hughes wore special platform shoes that made him taller.
• In the early stages of script development, the film was supposed to be a comedy.
• The alien's gun is a modified Calico M950.
• Matti Haas, who played the alien, had to perform all the stunts himself, as there were no stunt performers tall enough to match him.
