| Trivia | Justin Theroux's character is named Adrian, the same name as the baby fathered by Satan in the 1967 horror novel Rosemary's Baby and its 1968 movie adaptation. See more » |
| Goofs | During Lucy's first appointment at the clinic, Dr Hindle tells her that her problem with getting pregnant is due to low HCG levels. HCG is a hormone that is only produced when an embryo is forming i.e. pregnancy. It would not be present in Lucy at all. See more » |
