The Man from Earth (2007)

Trivia

The Man from Earth

Edit
The last work from screenwriter Jerome Bixby before his death.
The whole movie was shot using two Panasonic DVX100 camcorders, which probably explains the overall grainy look of the film.
The director, Richard Schenkman, has always appeared in a cameo in his previous movies. He wanted to appear as a mover but due to the need to choreograph the cast for the moving scene, he reluctantly decided to forgo his cameo and instead hired another person to be the second mover.
There were no deleted scenes for this movie, only three deleted lines, as explained by director Richard Schenkman in the DVD commentary.
(at around 1h 18 mins) The Tony Todd character, "Dan", mentions that he is going to go home and watch Star Trek. Todd appeared in six Star Trek episodes across three series, plus three video games; John Billingsley starred in Star Trek: Enterprise, appearing in all 98 episodes; Richard Riehle appeared in five episodes of Star Trek across three series; and David Lee Smith appeared in one episode of Star Trek: Voyager (1995). Lastly, screenwriter Jerome Bixby wrote several episodes of the original series.
