Alexa Vega had gotten a tattoo of a cross on the bottom of her foot, and had to be careful during production to not let it be seen. She later stated it was a "stupid thing to do" in the DVD commentary. It is visible in a few brief instances, however, such as when she is on her bed, pretending to sing with Mag shortly before Rotti sends her the first message.

At the beginning of the song "Let the Monster Rise", when Nathan gets on his feet and it cuts to Shilo, the shovel she dropped is facing upward. When she goes to grab the Repo mask, the shovel is facing downward. See more...

This film is actually the middle of an intended trilogy. Director Darren Lynn Bousman has created plans for both a prequel and a sequel with the creators of the original stage play upon which this film is based. Due to the limited theatrical release, the fate of the follow-ups will depend solely on DVD sales.
The only celebrity to make a cameo in the film is rock legend Joan Jett. The filmmakers didn't want the film to have any cameos and only decided to let Jett appear because her role is in a "fantasy musical sequence" had by the main character, so it makes sense that a celebrity she looks up to would appear.
In the original cut of the film, the Grave Robber character was in more sequences, and directly interacted with Shilo more often. During editing, in order to get the film to a shorter running length, several of his scenes were cut, and he became more of a narrator in the film than a featured character.
