The film also stars Tanner Thomason, Margaret Cho, David Koechner, Lance Reddick, and Jason Alexander.

Production

After Barnett and Masciale made their first film together and it premiered at Tribeca, they had hoped to be able to get studio funding to make another film, but spent two years unsuccessfully pitching ideas.

The film was made on a very low budget, and financed off of credit card borrowing. Filming locations included their own homes and the homes of family and friends, as well as the bar where they use to work at, and a local church they use to attend also. The film was shot in 15 days, across a dozen locations.

For the role of Butch Savage, they had originally wanted to cast an actual '80s action star in the role, but rewrote the part as a fictional character and hoped to cast a comedic actor instead. They were pleasantly surprised when David Koechner said yes to playing the role.

Jason Alexander joined the film in July 2019.
