Nico Mastorakis was inspired to make this film after seeing The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974). He noticed how much money that film made, and decided to make a more violent and perverse film in order to make even more money.
Nico Mastorakis allowed the film to be released on DVD after he learned that bootlegs were selling for large amounts. He even supervised the transfer from the original negative.
Director Nico Mastorakis admitted in an interview on the DVD that money was his only motivation for making this film.
The budget was so low that director Nico Mastorakis took a small acting part in the film because the actor originally cast in the wanted what was equivalent to $80.
