Trivia
This film's title, as with its source short story, 'The Night The Prowler', does not feature the words "and" or "of" in its title. Nor does it feature any punctuation such as a comma or dash. The title is a straight run of the four words: The Night The Prowler. The earlier unrelated movie The Night of the Prowler (1962) did feature the word "of" in the middle of its title.
