Interesting facts

Production

Perez was attracted to the project due to his desire to work with producer Jeff Miller, and he was intrigued by the possibility of directing a campy horror film, which he had never done before. Plante said that she was drawn to the film based on the campy appeal of the script. Trejo was approached after the film had financing. Lehman was cast by co-producer Mike Sikes, who she had previously worked with in Pretty Cool 2.

Filming began around November 2013 and included Lassen Volcanic National Park among other locations. Post-production ended in September 2014. Perez estimated that it took 1.5 years between when the script was written and the film's release date.
