Trivia
Oversized reproductions of worms, chickens, wasps and rats were used to create the gigantic creature effect. Six different mechanized rat heads and four human-motivated rat costumes were also employed.

Errores
When Morgan first meets Mrs. Skinner's rooster, the legs (from the knees down) are visible of the crew member wielding the giant chicken head.

Citas
Jack Bensington: [pointing at bubbling fluid from ground] That's what your husband brought us out here for?
Mrs. Skinner: Just like Mr. Skinner found 'er. Just like that one day. At first he thought it was oil and it was going to make us rich.
Jack Bensington: Come on, Lorna.
Lorna Scott: No, wait a minute, Jack, wait a minute. Look at this. I've never seen anything like it. Mrs. Skinner, how did your husband happen to feed it to the chickens?
Mrs. Skinner: Well, when we found out it weren't no oil, there was nothing to do about it, so we fed it to the chicks.
Lorna Scott: Right out of the ground like that?
Mrs. Skinner: No, miss. Nothing'll eat it unless we mix it with chicken feed.
Lorna Scott: And did all the chickens grow?
Mrs. Skinner: Only the baby chicks. Nothing seemed to affect the grown ones. Nothing at all.
Lorna Scott: Nothing happens to the full-grown chickens, is that right?
Mrs. Skinner: Well, they didn't grow none, if that's what you mean. But I didn't say nothing happened to 'em.
Lorna Scott: Well, what did happen?
Mrs. Skinner: They got et... by the real big ones.
Jack Bensington: Come on, Lorna.

Créditos curiosos
End credits play over a stilled image of a child sitting in a school class drinking milk, not knowing it has the growth substance.

Gordon's movies are all big Turkeys

If you don't know who Bert I. Gordon is let me give you the jist of his movies: big things attack people. What's with this guy. Just about every movie he does has a giant something or other attacking people. And this is no different. This film is unintentionally funny and feature giant rats, bees, maggots, mosquitoes and funniest of all: giant chickens! You haven't seen a bad movie till you see a movie that has a man fight a giant chicken and still take itself seriously!

This is one of those movies that should have appeared on MST3k but didn't (a darn shame). With really fake gunshot wounds (rats are "shot"... shot with red paint and look perfectly unharmed) this movies good for heckling with friends.
