One of very few films banned in the UK, but not the Republic of Ireland.
Following the James Bulger case and on the advice of three child psychiatrists this movie was rejected for a UK video certificate in 1996 by the BBFC. It has never been resubmitted to the BBFC and thus remains unrated in the UK. However, some UK video streaming platforms have shown this movie.
Mikey says his favorite movie is Nightmare on Elm Street. His adoptive mother is played by Mimi Craven, who not only played a nurse in the first film, but was married to its writer/director Wes Craven.
Three actors from the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise appear: Lyman Ward, who appeared in Freddy's Revenge, and Whitby Hertford, who appeared in the Dream Child, and Mimi Craven, wife of Elm Street director Wes Craven, who played a nurse in the first film.
Filmed and finished in 1991 (exact filming dates unknown).
