Trivia: Although the movie was almost a completely different story than the book, they did make reference to a scene in the book: when you see the guy in the beginning in the hospital, he has blood all over his face. The reason is because right before then he was talking about Quantum Foam and then went into convulsions, then started spewing up blood...gory, but a nice add in to let us know that the writers actually read the book.

Mimic: Sentinel picture

Trivia: Writer/Director JT Petty got the approval to make this follow-up after a simple pitch. He went into a meeting and told the produces that he wanted to "make Hitchcock's 'Rear Window, ' except with giant cockroaches." Not only was it a novel approach to a sequel that allowed the studio to take the series in a new direction, but it also helped the production save money, since most of the film would be set in and around a single location (in this case an apartment complex.) He was given the greenlight almost immediately after.
