Trivia
Stephen King says that he was genuinely frightened by this adaption of his novella. Frank Darabont described that as the happiest moment of his career.

Goofs
When the group is finally leaving the market, the bright headlights and all the auxiliary lights on the truck would produce a bright, blinding wall of light in the mist. Nothing would be visible in front of the truck.

Quotes
Amanda Dunfrey: You don't have much faith in humanity, do you?
Dan Miller: None, whatsoever.
Amanda Dunfrey: I can't accept that. People are basically good; decent. My god, David, we're a civilized society.
David Drayton: Sure, as long as the machines are working and you can dial 911. But you take those things away, you throw people in the dark, you scare the shit out of them - no more rules.

Crazy credits
The end credits begin as the song at the end of the film fades out. As the end credits roll up the screen, the sounds of military vehicles (helicopters, tanks, APCs, etc.) can be heard over the credits.

Alternate versions
Director Frank Darabont wanted the movie to be in black and white. Although it was filmed in color, and shown that way theatrically, a black and white version was released on home video.
