Trivia
The last film to use the turn-table technique for 360° shots. The risk of actors being hurt or killed by the fast-moving camera was too high.

Goofs
At the beginning of the 12-minute shoot-out, the camera pulls away from the group of protagonists in slow-mo. At the bottom of the screen, you can see the dolly-track that the camera is riding on.

When Rudy talks to Alicia about Casper's death, an electric light is on, even though the house was built and furnished before the light bulb was invented. Uwe Boll himself pointed it out in the commentary.

Q
What are the differences between the Theatrical Version and the Director's Cut/Funny Version?
A
In 2003, House of the Dead, the first video game adaptation of Uwe Boll, who has gotten himself a certain reputation in this area, was released. The film is a mundane zombie flick with a shallow plot and a tendency to be trash. Five years later, Lions Gate has released a Director's Cut version of the film on DVD. The film was made into a comedy with new music, alternative scenes, outtakes and several overlay-commentaries - which is the reason for the subtitle "Funny Version" on the DVD's front cover. A detailed comparison between both versions with pictures can be found here.
