Production

In February 1993, it was reported New Line Cinema and August Entertainment were developing a sequel to The Lawnmower Man. The initial development for the sequel began under the working title of CyberJob and centered around Jeff Fahey's return as Jobe Smith. The CyberJob incarnation of the script was then abandoned in favor of an ambitious scientist repeating Dr.

The first Lawnmower Man had been New Line Cinema's highest grossing theatrical release of 1992 and a sequel had been initially advertised with the title Lawnmower Man 2: Mindfire on the 1993 VHS releases of the first film. Filming for the sequel commenced in March 1995 in Los Angeles with only Austin O'Brien returning from the original.

Filming took place between September and December of 1994.
