Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaPeter Fonda, playing Marley, was edited out of the film shortly before it aired, yet he is still visible in a portrait on a wall in Grudge's study. He also can be glimpsed in a reflection in the glass of a door and silently sitting at the dining room table.
- GoofsThe Andrews Sisters are billed in the closing credits as "The Andrew Sisters".
- Quotes
Imperial Me: Now then, they don't come out in so many words and say that they want to take us over. They're too clever for that. But, that's what they want. They want to take over us. Individual Me. And if we let them seep in here from down yonder and cross river - if we let these do-gooders, these bleeding hearts, propagate their insidious doctrine of involvement among us - then my dear friends, my beloved Me's - we's in trouble. Deep, deep trouble. Because - because we have now reached a pure state of civilization. The world of the ultimate Me is finally within our grasp. Its a world were only the strong will exist. Where only the path will love. Where finally the word "we" will be stamped out and will become "I" - forever! Because we are each the wise. We're each the strong. And we are each the individual Me's!
- Alternate versionsA version shown on Turner Classic Movies eliminates any mention of composer Henry Mancini and replaces the opening 'Carol for Another Christmas' theme with a reprise of the choral music played over the closing credits. [The TCM version aired 4/16/24 included Mancini's music credit immediately after the actors' opening credits.]
