Production

Sources indicate that the film was made quickly. American film historian Bill Warren noted that "the script was written and filmed in a great hurry - it was shot in late December 1957, and ready for release by early April 1958". The movie was shot on a sound stage in "six or seven days", on a budget of approximately $100,000. The film is black and white and is in a 1.37:1 aspect ratio.

The origins of The Flame Barrier are somewhat vague. Daily Variety reportedly carried an item sometime in July 1957 which stated that Gramercy Pictures purchased an original story titled "The Flame Barrier" from author Sam X. Abarbanel and hired Yates and Fielder to adapt it into a screenplay. Both Yates and Fielder are credited on screen. Abarbabel is not, and his role in writing the screenplay, if he had one, is unknown.
