In a 2015 interview with FilmFad, Charles Hood spoke about the film's general inspirations, and how the whole movie sprang from one particular scene in a classic film: "My co-writer Seth Goldsmith and I knew we were going to be restricted by a smaller budget so we wanted to find an idea that we could pull off in kind of a contained way. We love movies that take place in one day and one location. Die Hard (1988) is one of my favorite movies, The Ref (1994) is another one of my favorite movies. It was sort of born out of the restriction that we created for ourselves. We were just talking about what kind of stories could work with those sort of parameters and the idea of one character overdosing on sleeping pills and the other one have to keep them awake all night came up. And then we recalled that scene in The Apartment (1960)... where Shirley MacLaine overdoses on sleeping pills and Jack Lemmon has to keep her awake all night. And it's just one scene in that movie that lasts a couple minutes but we were like, 'Why couldn't that be a whole movie to itself? That would be really fun. That could be a great concept.'"
