Interesting facts
Peege is a 1973 American short student film, written and directed by Randal Kleiser, about a family's visit to an elderly relative in a nursing home.
Production
There were no problems during shooting, and indeed the production enjoyed more than its share of good fortune. Producer David Knapp was also working on a CBS television movie at the same time (Steven Spielberg's Something Evil), and since that film had wrapped ahead of schedule, the Peege crew were able to get access to the studio offices for the remaining two weeks of the lease without any cost.
