Trivia:
Director Jeff Burr was fired toward the beginning of production. He was rehired after nobody else accepted the job.

The stunt coordinator for this film was Kane Hodder, whose best-known role is that of another horror icon - Jason Voorhees. He was also R.A. Mihailoff's stunt double and played Leatherface in the trailer.

This film's original script was much more brutal with explicit gore sequences. The producers objected to many of the scenes (one of which had a nude man being split down the middle while hung upside down) and demanded extensive changes to the script to reduce gore and violence. Further cuts had to be made to avoid an X-rating after the film was finished.
