An international co-production between the United States and Japan, the film stars Justin Gordon, Eva Swan, Simon Phillips, Doug Jones, Lance Henriksen, and Patrick Gorman.

Production

Gehenna: Where Death Lives is Hiroshi Katagiri's debut feature as a director. Filming was completed in Los Angeles, California, as well as on the islands of Saipan and Tinian in 2015. The film employed traditional special-effects makeup, created by Spectral Motion in Glendale, California, to achieve its gory scenes.

This was the first feature film to be significantly shot in Saipan and Tinian, marking an important milestone in the cinema of Northern Mariana Islands. While the production and director were not local, much of the crew, extras, and some actors were from Saipan. The Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands supported the film’s production, and local citizens also contributed through crowdfunding efforts.
