Loren McConnell: (reaches a shaking hand up to Katherine's face) Faith.
- While Katherine and Ben are at Doug's house the first night for dinner, Katherine drinks "Purple Haze" beer.
- Filming in Louisiana was interrupted by Hurricane Katrina.
- The 10 plagues from the Bible are: river and water sources turn to blood (Exodus 7:14-25), amphibians (commonly believed to be frogs)(Exodus 7:26-8:11), gnats (or lice)(Exodus 8:12-15), wild beasts (Exodus 8:16-28), disease on livestock (Exodus 9:1-7), unhealable boils (Exodus 9:8-12), hail mixed with fire (Exodus 9:13-35), locusts (Exodus 10:1-20), darkness (Exodus 10:21-29), and death of the firstborn (Exodus 11:1-12:36). In the movie, it replaces the gnats with lice and puts it as the 6th plague, after boils. It also mixes hail, locusts, and darkness, putting locusts first, then darkness and hail of fire.
- Philip Glass was the film's original composer. His score had been written and recorded before he was replaced by John Frizzell.
- The film portrays the city of Concepcion, Chile, as a warm, tropical, Third World small town. This caused a furor in Concepcion, with people walking out of the theaters and others calling for authorities to ban the movies.
