  • The "volcanic ash" was really fine newspaper shavings.
  • Most of the film`s exteriors were shot in Wallace, Idaho, and Dante`s Peak and surrounding scenery were then digitally added.
  • A great many special effects in the movie were practical special effects, using real-world models or full-size properties and vehicles.
  • All crater scenes were shot at Mt St Helens
  • The dogs that played Roughy were wolf hybrids (part wolf and part Airedale Terrier).
