Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The Lockjaw suit was built by Gary Jones, who worked on Evil Dead II and Army of Darkness—which explains why it looks surprisingly decent for a $3 million movie.
This bombed so hard in theaters it made $600,000 against a $3 million budget, becoming a cautionary tale about releasing creature features wide instead of direct-to-DVD where they belong.
