- TriviaIn an interview with Kevin Smith, Stan Lee said that, unbeknownst to its cast and crew, this movie was never intended to be released. It was made only because the studio that owned the rights to make a Fantastic Four movie would have lost those rights if production didn't start by a certain date. Producers Bernd Eichinger and Roger Corman have both denied this. Corman said he was under contract to release it, and Eichinger said the film was never released because Marvel Studios founder Avi Arad bought it and ordered all copies destroyed for fear of the low-budget project cheapening the brand. Arad confirmed this in 2002, adding that he had been unaware of an upcoming Fantastic Four film until a fan mentioned it to him after noticing Arad's Fantastic Four shirt. Arad has never seen the film.
- Goofs(at around 39 mins) One of the jeweler's minions sprays Alicia in the face with a spray to knock her out. We see a Point Of View shot from Alicia's point of view showing her being sprayed and her head nodding. However, Alicia is blind so she should not have a point of view.

Awesome
Why does everyone trash this movie? Anyone who has read a Fantastic 4 comic book in their life would know that this movie stuck closer to the Origin and premise of the Comic Book than almost every other comic book film out there. And the costumes were perfect. The THING (Ben Grimm) has to be one of the best translations from the Comic Book page to Film that I have ever seen. And the actors all looked liked the Comic Book characters. Doom was pretty damn cool too. Although I will admit they could have done away with the blind girl(Lyja). That sub-plot just didn't work at all. But besides that, I think this was a pretty good movie. The only people who trash this movie are the people that can never be pleased no matter what is done to make the Comic Book movie as good as the Comic Book. For the budget they had and the whole reason behind which this movie was made(It was only made so Roger Corman could keep the Film rights to the F4), I would say this is one under-rated film. It's way better than alot of crappy Comic Book Films we have seen before. This would really be good on DVD in a nice Widescreen re-mastered presentation. Keep hopes alive.
