Production

Linda Shayne first got the idea of doing a film adaptation of Sheb Wooley's 1958 novelty song The Purple People Eater while working with Jim Wynorski on Screwballs with Wynorski remarking the song would make a good movie. While Shayne was able to secure the option for the song relatively easily from Wooley, acquiring financing took several years.
