R E L E A S E  N O T E S

The screenplay was started by Harlan Ellison, who wrote
the novella on which it is based. Ellison encountered
writer's block, and so producer Alvy Moore and L.Q. Jones
took over and wrote the script. Ellison saw nothing of
the film until the premiere, at which he was sitting next
to Moore. Ellison praised the film, to the relief of
Moore, but there are rumours that Ellison later condemned
the film.

Tim McIntire (who did the voice of "Blood") sang the main
title song, "A Boy And His Dog."
