Bruce Campbell was Carpenter's first choice to play Montoya.
Despite being a horror movie, John Carpenter stated on the audio commentary that he did this movie because it closely resembled a western to him.
Gene Siskel enjoyed the film and James Woods in such a radical departure from his usual fare so much, he suggested that Woods be nominated for an Oscar for his performance in this film.
John Carpenter had a good working relationship with James Woods on set. Apparently Woods has a reputation for being difficult to work with, but Carpenter got along with him just fine. They had a deal: Carpenter could film one scene as it was written; the other Woods could improvise. Carpenter found to his delight that many of Woods' suggestions were brilliant.
The search to find an actor to play Jack Crow proved to be difficult. Carpenter's first choice was Kurt Russell, but Russell had to decline due to prior commitments. Carpenter had also wanted R. Lee Ermey, but the studio declined this offer because they felt that Ermey lacked the star power. The studio had offered Clint Eastwood, Tommy Lee Jones, and Danny Glover the role, all of whom declined. Dolph Lundgren, who was originally attached to play Crow before Carpenter took over, was asked by Carpenter to return but this time as the villain, which he declined.
"Jack Crow: You ever seen a vampire? Father Adam Guiteau: No, I haven't. Jack Crow: No... Well first of all, they're not romantic. It's not like they're a bunch of fuckin' fags hoppin' around in rented formal wear and seducing everybody in sight with cheesy Euro-trash accents, all right? Forget whatever you've seen in the movies: they don't turn into bats, crosses don't work. Garlic? You wanna try garlic? You could stand there with garlic around your neck and one of these buggers will bend you fucking over and take a walk up your strada-chocolata WHILE he's suckin' the blood outta your neck, all right? And they don't sleep in coffins lined in taffeta. You wanna kill one, you drive a wooden stake right through his fuckin' heart. Sunlight turns 'em into crispy critters."
"Jack Crow: Let me ask you a question. When you were stabbing that vampire in there? Father Adam Guiteau: Yeah? Jack Crow: Did you get a little wood? Father Adam Guiteau: Mahogany. Jack Crow: Excuse me? Father Adam Guiteau: Ebony. Jack Crow: What? Father Adam Guiteau: Teak. Jack Crow: Are you possessed by demons? Father Adam Guiteau: Major Chubby. Jack Crow: Language, Padre, language!"
