The film features a score by Guido De Angelis and Maurizio De Angelis, performed by the composers under the pseudonym Oliver Onions. The film co-starred a young Michele Soavi, years before he became an Italian horror film director, and a cameo appearance by Ciro Ippolito (in the role of "Joe"). It was filmed in California, the Cinecittà studios in Rome, and in the Castellana Caves.
