Trivia:
The character of Sukie got her name from the character Sukie Tawdry, from Brecht's musical "The Threepenny Opera"; in the musical, Sukie is condemned as a prostitute (though she isn't one) by the community because she has born numerous children to various husbands. moreGoofs:

John Updike probably panicked when he saw what screenwriter Michael Cristofer and director George Miller did to his book.....but this movie is all the BETTER for what they did! Careening wildly between scenes of light fantasy, full-bore horror and extreme gross-outs, this film is wildly imaginative and terrifically entertaining. With Jack Nicholson as the devil himself, things just don't get any better than that! Actually, the whole cast is very well-chosen and all give great performances.
A great cult film...can't wait to see and hear those barfing scenes on DVD! Four stars!!!! ****
