** The poor mouse, basically serving as a CanaryInTheCoalMine, succumbs first to the radiation. What's worse is that as events had played out, the presence of the mouse was wholly unnecessary, as nobody would need it to identify the blatantly obvious risk of the radiation leaks after the reactor was compromised.

** Creator/HarrisonFord and Creator/LiamNeeson [[CastingGag had both starred]] in ''Franchise/StarWars'' films, and now, both their characters have had the same fate of [[spoiler:being impaled by a Dark Side user.]]
** This movie gets extra interesting if you've seen ''Kinsey'', in which Creator/LiamNeeson (Polenin) and Creator/PeterSarsgaard (Radtchenko) play characters who have a sexual affair.
** Creator/DonaldSumpter plays the doctor aboard K-19 who frantically tries to treat increasingly ill victims of radiation poisoning. In 2019, he appeared in ''Series/{{Chernobyl}}'' as a communist official who attempts to downplay what is about to be the worst nuclear accident in history.

* NightmareFuel: The movie pulls absolutely no punches in showing what hundreds or thousands of rads do to a human body. The ones going into the reactor room die agonizing deaths over ''days''. Many more succumb to cancer and other radiation-related illnesses over the following months and years.
