Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDuring the fight scenes, the camera often tracks Grey so that he remains in the middle of frame. According to director Leigh Whannell, this was achieved by hiding a phone somewhere on actor Logan Marshall-Green, which the cameras could then pair to and follow with as much accuracy as possible.
- GoofsStem asks Grey to hold the drawn tattoo in front of his eyes in order to read it for him. However, Stem already has the picture (since he has drawn it) in his memory, so there was no logical reason to re-scan it again for the purpose of reading it.
- Quotes
Grey Trace: See, you thought I was a cripple but you didn't know that I'm a ninja.
Stem: While I am state of the art, I am not a ninja.
- Crazy creditsIn lieu of text, the production companies and title are instead narrated by an artificial female voice, represented visually by sound waves.
