Curiosidades
The Rast family in this movie are named after members of the House of Romanov, the last imperial dynasty of Russia. The Rast surname is Tsar spelled backwards. Nick Rast (David Hemmings) is named after Tsar Nicholas II (Nikolay II, Nikolay Alexandrovich Romanov). His wife, Sandra Rast (Carmen Duncan), is named after the spouse of Nicholas II, Tsarina Alexandra (Alix of Hesse aka Victoria Alix Helena Louise Beatrice). Their son, Alex Rast (Mark Spain) is named after their heir apparent, Alexei Nikolaevich, Tsarevich of Russia. The names Nick, Sandra and Alex substitute for Nicholas, Alexandra and Alexei respectively.

Erros de gravação
The levitation of the piano reveals that it is hollow and contains no strings, hammers or metal pieces. If it was a complete piano, there would be a tremendous sound of string notes as it hit the floor.

Citações
Gregory Wolfe: I know there are powers at work in the universe. For those higher powers, the de-materialization of a given target would be child's play.

Very strange and unconvincing film

Despite a potentially rich premise and the presence of David Hemmings (a personal favorite of mine) , this was a rather disappointing and overly confusing film. The plot more or less is a bizarre re-working of the Rasputin legend and revolves on a charismatic magician who infiltrates in a political family to cure the son of his leukemia, but then continues with interfering in the husband's career as a replacement-senator. This terrifically mystic idea is pretty much ruined by a bad script, a whole lot of supernatural mumbo-jumbo and a wooden performance by Robert Powell. I was hoping to see some exciting horror effects and eerie make up but "Harlequin" is very tame and lifeless. David Hemmings is okay, and so is the young actor Mark Spain. Especially after his cure, he turns into a spooky and mysterious little brat. In short: this easily could have been one of the most ingenious fantasy-tales of the eighties but it became a failure instead. Director Wincer went on directing less ambitious and more comic movies such as "Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man", "Free Willy" and "Crocodile Dundee in LA".
