Behind the scenes
- When the two Things first meet, they do the mirror gag from the Marx Brothers film Duck Soup.
Errors
- Three Caucasian cops came in at the beginning, but when they did a close-up, one of them was African American.
- "Pizzeria" is spelled "Pizzaria."
- When the Thing transforms back into Benjy, the rings were drawn differently than they usually were. They now resembled two halves of a ring, instead of two full ones knocking into each other.
