Half of the film was shot in the Directors childhood home and backyard. His idea was to make an ultimate backyard movie to save costs on locations.
There were 50 gallons of blood used for the special effects. Due to budget restrictions each special effect needed to be shot on the first take.
There are several scenes that were so disturbing it caused some actors and crew to have nausea/vomiting.
Most special effects were a one and done take.
Most film festivals rejected the film due to the extreme content.
