Production

Kevin Connor says that he got the job as director after Milton Subotsky read some scripts he had adapted with some friends. Subotsky took four of them, liked them, and offered Connor the job. Connor pointed out that he had never directed a film before, but Subotsky argued that editors made the best directors. Connor says that the film's budget was "miniscule [sic]".

It was one of a number of horror movies starring Diana Dors.

Filming was completed in 1973 in London, England.
