c.		The movie initially was called "Born to Be Bad" with Lew Ayres again starring as Dr.Kildare. After principal shooting had been completed, Ayres announced he was a conscientious objector to world war II in which America was then involved. Fearing adverse publicity, MGM scrapped his footage, replaced him with Philip Dorn (I), and changed the title.
d.		During pre-production, the film was originally supposed to carry a hard R rating, but after deliberations, the studio had to tone down the films script to PG-13. This meant changing the plot, dialog and characters. John August was hired as a "script doctor" to make these changes.

Consequently, it had a long history of interesting marketing tactics (see Carl Laemmle) to sell its films to independent theaters. In the B-picture horror genre, it would often release films as part of a double bill. This film was originally released in the spring of 1946 with She-Wolf of London.
c.		Rob Schneiders character Ula was inspired by Siope Samuela Ula Lomu, a Tongan concierge at a luxury rental property at which Schneider, Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore are regular visitors. Lomu has the same blinded, grayed-over left eye that Schneiders Ula has, but theres not much resemblance beyond that. Says Lomu, "They arent like some other top Hollywood people. Theyre really normal."
d.		Geoffrey Rush was never meant to look like Vincent Price (star of the original film House on Haunted Hill). The original screenplay described Stephen Price as a regular looking businessman.

After his transformation, he ended up looking so much like Vincent Price the director decided to keep the look.
