The Red Pill (Film)/Trivia

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Americans Hate Tingle: The Red Pill documentary is most popular - relatively speaking - in its country of origin (according to reviews and media reception), the United States. It is strongly disliked in numerous countries, especially (again, according to reviews and media reception) in Australia and Canada.
  • Banned in China: There have been pushes in several countries, such as Australia and Canada, to get the film banned from being shown in cinemas or sold in shops. Despite this, it has spread through other means of distribution.
  • Keep Circulating the Tapes: The film was not widely released for purchase for a year, and it seemed resigned to being shared through the internet or illegal or international copies. This changed when the film was taken up and made available for purchase on iTunes in 2017, and later Hulu followed suit as well.
  • No Budget: Producers refused to fund the film unless it had a feminist bias, and Cassie only got the money for it due to a kickstarter campaign. The total budget for the film was less than one million dollars.
  • Streisand Effect: The backlash that the film provoked from several groups has been a contributing factor for how well known the film and its content is.
