Trivia: In a deleted scene, we are shown so-called "actual footage" from when a lone police officer is staking out the Tyler residence. In the beginning of the scene, another voice shouts "Action!" before anyone moves. If this was actual footage from the police car's dashboard camera, who is doing the shouting?

Trivia: The house used in the film as the one where the master lives, is the house in the news called the "nail house," where the owners refused an order to move because of construction.

Trivia: "The Box" was based on a short horror story entitled "Button Button" by prolific and legendary sci-fi author Richard Matheson. Matheson's original story was first published in a 1970 issue of Playboy Magazine. He adapted his own story for the screen in a 1985 episode of the new "Twilight Zone" TV series, but it was significantly rewritten after he submitted it. Matheson was so angered by the Twilight Zone rewrite that he refused to allow his real name in the episode credits and instead used his pseudonym, "Logan Swanson."
Trivia: Despite being the third film, this sequel was actually filmed second. At the point it went into filming, Wesley Snipes, who starred in the original, hadn't signed on for a sequel, so his role was recast. During production, Snipes signed on to return to the series and a new sequel was commissioned, while this film was shelved while producers figured out what to do with it. It was going to be re-titled at one point and any references to the previous films cut-out to make it stand alone, but after "The Art of War II: Betrayal" became a hot-seller, this film was quickly released as the "third" entry in the series.
Trivia: When Sofi wakes up before dawn, she recites a brief thanksgiving prayer to G-d. In Hebrew it is called "Modeh Ani", loosely translated as "I acknowledge", and it is the first prayer uttered by observant Jews after waking up in the morning.
Trivia: Though sometimes billed as a sequel or remake to the movie "Bad Lieutenant," the films are not connected in any way beyond featuring a corrupt law-enforcement officer as the lead character.

Trivia: When the Bone Hunters get trapped under the falling rocks, you can hear the Wilhelm scream.

Trivia: At the end of the film, Michael Lang mentions he's going to California to put on another free concert with the Rolling Stones. He's referring to the infamous "Altamont concert" where the Hells Angels motorcycle gang provided security, which resulted in a number of people being beaten up, two people dying in a hit-and-run accident, one accidentally drowning, and another being stabbed to death.
