Production

The film was "suggested by" a science book by Anthony Smith.

The cost of optioning film rights and developing the project to take to market cost £11,000 which was financed by the National Film Finance Corporation (NFFC). After a year, by December 1969 Battersby had a script. He showed this to the NFFC which resulted in another draft of the script. The NFFC agreed to provide half of the finance.

Battersby shot about 300,000 feet of film of which 11,000 were used. "There was a lot of blood and film on the cutting room floor," said Garnett.
