Logan's Run

Trivia: The sparks visible when the sandmen shoot are real. It's one of the few films in which real guns were used.

Trivia: In the first scene in the Senate Chamber, as Logan and Jessica enter, listen for Peter Ustinov clowning around on the sound track. The cats say "hello" very distinctly, twice. A meow can sound like hello, but not that much like it.

Trivia: In the last scene, everyone is waving to the old man - one of the male extras (just left of center, his back to the camera), holds up his hand in an obvious Vulcan salute with the two middle fingers spread wide apart for about two seconds till they cut away.

Questions

Question: Why were the enforcers called sandmen?

Answer: In popular American lore, the Sandman is responsible for putting sand over your eyes to make you go to sleep. In this context the "sleep" is a euphemism for death, and the enforcers are responsible for making sure that everyone dies on time.
