The film was shot in approximately 37 hours over 3 days.
According to an interview with the director Ace Jordan, he said the true story this was based on a man from the UK who murdered his two children for no apparent reason (or at least the reason he gave made no rational sense). When investigators questioned his friends and neighbors, they said he had recently become strangely fascinated with the Devil, Satanism and the Occult. He murdered his two sons but never laid a finger on his teenage daughter.
