Though Steven Seagal is the only one on the poster and is top billed he only appears in the movie for 10 minutes.
In an interview for Fair Blues magazine, Tim Abell talks about his horrible experience acting with Seagal. The star needed two assistants to carry an oxygen tank wherever he went, and he demanded that his boots be equipped with skates so he didn't need to walk. Invisible wires were used to hoist him up so that when he had to get up from a chair, he didn't have to make any effort, which reminded everyone of some ventriloquist James Wan movie no one has seen. Frustrated and mentally exhausted, director Olen Ray took out his fury on the rest of the cast, calling Rob Van Damm an imbecile muscular troglodyte and verbally abusing actress Charlene Amoia. On the penultimate day of filming, when entering a cubicle to relieve herself, the actress stumbled upon something she initially took as a dead sea lion, until realizing it was Seagal. He was lying in a pool of vomit. Ecstatic, she called on her colleagues and, because they thought Seagal was dead, there were howls of joy and celebration, with director Olen Ray even slipping a crew member some money to go buy champagne for an improvised party. Unfortunately, when Abel and Van Dam went to pick the body up to throw it into the antiseptic tank, grunts of pain revealed Seagal was still alive, and happiness did not last.
The movie was filmed in 20 days.
The reason the movie features so many vehicles is specifically because Seagal requested there be more than were initially included
Some of the dialogue was improvised and based on reaction the actors had at the moment. One example is when actress Charlene Amoia, who plays whats-her-name, asks Steven Seagal if he was as good as they said he was, "they" meaning the food caterers who worked on the set and had to work around the clock to provide food for Seagal. Director Olen Ray, who had the cameras on, liked the line and added it to his picture, saying "Steven, God bless his enlarged heart, answered 'every once in a while', taking it kindly, and worked well in the picture".
