• With a limited budget, Director Travis Milloy built the set himself using the most inexpensive materials he could find. To create futuristic walls in the prison cell he used plastic crates that are used to carry 2-liter soda pop bottles which he found next to dumpsters behind grocery stores. Not realizing the crates were re-used by the bottling company, unknowingly having stolen them, after the film was completed he returned the crates to the grocery stores where he found them.

• The gas station Frank walks into is the Fastop Truck Stop outside of California City, CA. The exterior shot of Frank approaching the station had to be timed carefully and was done in one take to avoid seeing traffic in the background. The gas station remained open for business while filming took place. In order to make it appear empty, the store clerk merely ducked down behind the counter for the shot of Frank walking in and customers who were buying groceries hid behind the shelves as Frank walked past. Because of the inconvenience, the director paid for their coffee and soda drinks.

• Actors Christopher Soren Kelly and Cajardo Lindsey share scenes in which they talk to one another through a vent in the prison wall. The scenes were shot a year apart, in separate locations. The two actors never met.
