Trivia
Guy Pearce admitted that he had trouble getting the accent of the Reverend right, who is supposed to be Dutch. He called it one of the hardest accents in the world, but worked hard to get as close as he could, hoping that Dutch audiences would forgive him if it did not sound completely right.

Goofs
The Accles & Shelvoke captive bolt pistol used to kill the pig was invented in 1903. Though the movie does not specify what year it is, the voice-over talks about 'the old century ', which means the epilogue is probably set in the 20th century and the rest in the three decades before.

Quotes
The Reverend: People think it's the flames that make Hell unbearable. It's not. It is the absence of love.

Crazy credits
The very last credit is: xxx!

Very dark movie

Outstanding performance of all actors. Difficult, authentic scenes of very high quality. Movie has very dark story for strong stomach. I almost wasn't able to see it whole. I need a beer, before bed.
