Production
The events of the film were originally supposed to take place in Australia in the near future, since all the creators of the film, including the screenwriter, were Australians, but in order to save money, filming was conducted in the Philippines with American actors.
Legendary Australian stuntman Grant Page was the stunt coordinator on the film. He also served as a second unit director alongside producer Howard Grigsby.
