The majority of this film was shot with a hand-held camera.
Paul's shirt in the film indicates he is an alumnus of Miskatonic University, an institution that features prominently in H.P. Lovecraft's stories and one of the settings in Re-Animator (1985), the first Lovecraft adaptation by director Stuart Gordon, producer Brian Yuzna and writer Dennis Paoli.
Dagon appears in the Judeo-Christian Bible and is the name of a half-fish/half-man deity who is the father of Baal. Dagon was worshiped by the Assyrians in Ninevah, whom the prophet Jonah was sent to preach to.
The chant by the locals at the sacrificial ceremony near the end, "Iä! Iä! Cthulhu fhtagn!" appears in many H.P. Lovecraft tales, shouted by followers of the Old Ones.
The name of the cursed town is Inboca or "Imboca" (according to Spanish language rules). Boca means mouth in Spanish, so translating and adding an "S", you get In-s-mouth, the original name of the town created by H.P. Lovecraft for his "Shadow over Innsmouth" story.
"Uxía Cambarro: Before you came, there had been no sacrifices for a year. Dagon needs her. Paul Marsh: Fuck Dagon! Uxía Cambarro: Yes, and their child will be immortal! Paul Marsh: Yeah, but there's a catch. It has to live the rest of its life as some kind of half-ass fish of the sea. Uxía Cambarro: [agreeing] In joy, with Dagon!"
"[last lines] Uxía Cambarro: Pablo, it is your destiny. Paul Marsh: You stay away! I'll kill you all! I'll burn this fucking town to the ground! Uxía Cambarro: We had different mothers, but the same father. We are children of Dagon. Paul Marsh: You're a bunch of freaks. A bunch of fucking freaks! Uxía Cambarro: Your dreams. Remember your dreams, Pablo. They brought you here. Paul Marsh: No. They were nightmares. They weren't real. Uxía Cambarro: Every dream is a wish. Paul Marsh: [Paul collapses] Somebody help me! What's happening to me? Uxía Cambarro: You are my brother. You will be my lover - forever. Paul Marsh: [setting himself on fire] No possibilities. Uxía Cambarro: Pablo! No! No! No! [she drags him down into the sea where the flames are extinguished, and they swim away into the depths together] Intertitle: "We shall dive down through black abysses... and in that lair of the Deep Ones we shall dwell amidst wonder and glory forever." - H.P. Lovecraft"
