Fun Stuff
Trivia: Janet Leigh broke her left arm before filming commenced, but appeared nonetheless. The arm was in a cast, hidden from the camera, for many scenes. In the more revealing motel scenes, the cast was removed for filming, and re-applied afterwards. (more)

Goofs: Continuity: When Mr. Linnekar's car explodes, it remains upright, but in the following shots it appears to be turned on its side. (more)

Quotes:
