In later years co-star Vincent Price ridiculed the inanities in this film. After the Medved Brothers' book "The Fifty Worst Films of All Time" came out in the late 1970s, Price declared in an interview that he could not understand how they could not include "Green Hell."

The massive temple set was re-dressed and re-used in several subsequent Universal movies, including The Mummy's Hand (1940) and Il fantasma dell'opera (1943).

Although Joan Bennett played Vincent Price's wife in the film, they never met until long after the film was completed.

The movie was made on a 45 000 square foot interior jungle set, during the worst heat wave Los Angeles had known in 40 years.

Vincent Price said that, of all the films he's appeared in, this one is "always on the list of fifty worst movies ever made"; the other one is "The House of a Thousand Dolls."
