    • Trivia
      The original South Korean theatrical print of the film was lost, but the U.S. TV print still exists.

    • Quotes
      • Soldier: You got here a bit too late, sir. They're going to hit Yongary any minute. They'll be using guided missiles. You better go. They're going to hit Yongary any minute. They'll be using guided missiles. You better go.
    • Alternate versions
      The U.S. version of the film has had four slightly different title/end sequences. 1. The Region 1 MGM widescreen DVD had no titles on the film print. MGM did their best to match the previous 1960s version font and style. 2. The public domain DVD released by St. Clair Vision features the original title sequence and has the wording of "American international Television Presents" in small lettering above the title. 3. The public domain DVD released by Alpha Video also has the original 1960s title sequence; however, the AIP wording of "American international Television Presents" is not present on their print. It just shows the title of the film. 4. The end credits sequence is both the same for the Alpha Video and St. Clair Vision DVD versions. The MGM DVD version is slightly different.
