Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The glass drowning cell was real and functional—no CGI water, actual practical terror. Vincent D'Onofrio performed in freezing temperatures.
Eiko Ishioka's costumes were so iconic they directly influenced Lady Gaga's 'Born This Way' era and Alexander McQueen collections. This film is secretly a fashion bible.
