Trivia:
|
- The "Platinum Series" DVD of Se7en by New Line is mastered from a new HDTV transfer which was made directly from the camera negative. This required that the whole film be re-graded digitally, applying color and contrast correction to every shot under the director's supervision. The resulting HDTV master is now the official master of the film. The digital corrections are quite extensive in some shots as the DVD supplements demonstrate in detail.
- When Mills realizes whose head is in the box, there is a single-frame shot of that person.
- The prison jumpsuit John Doe wears at the end of the film has the words "Bardach County Jail" written on it. Elinor Bardach was the costume supervisor for this movie.
- A rejected version of the credits had the same scratchy handwriting and Coil-remixed "Closer to God", but used static images instead of the jumpy, blurred footage used currently. (This credit sequence is in the Criterion laserdisc supplement section.)
- All the building numbers in the opening scene start with 7. The climactic delivery was scheduled for 7pm.

Credits Fun:
|
- Credits roll down instead of up.
- The opening credits are done over broken, blurred images of John Doe removing the skin from his fingertips and sewing it into his journals.
