Production

The screenplay for The Kiss was written by Stephen Volk, who had previously written Gothic (1986) for Ken Russell, and would follow The Kiss with William Friedkin's The Guardian (1990). Though set in Albany, New York, the film was shot on location in Montreal, Québec, Canada. Discussing the film's intended tone, director Pen Densham described it as "somewhere between The Exorcist and Poltergeist." The film had the working title The Host.

Principal photography began in Montreal on August 25, 1987. The church sequences were filmed at St. Martin's Church in Westmount. Its special effects team was made up of Charles Carter, and Chris Walas, who supplied the special effects on Gremlins (1984) and David Cronenberg's The Fly (1986).
