The film owes something to two earlier films made about evangelical con-men, "The Rainmaker" (1956), starring Burt Lancaster and Katharine Hepburn, and the 1960 "Elmer Gantry" directed by Richard Brooks and starring Burt Lancaster (once again) and Jean Simmons. Other more contemporary films dealing with spiritual hucksters include "UFOria" (1980) with Cindy Williams and Harry Dean Stanton, and the documentary "Marjoe" (1972) directed by Howard Smith and Sarah Kernochan.
