Production
The film marked the feature directorial debut of Scott Spiegel. The film was partially based around Scott Spiegel's experiences working at the real Walnut Lake Market in Michigan. It was also something of a remake of an earlier Super-8 short film by Spiegel. The short was a slasher story called Night Crew and featured a more Halloween-inspired killer.
The movie was filmed at an empty grocery store which was rented to the crew of the movie. The shelves were empty and bare and the crew had a company who specialized in damaged goods deliver over two tons of defective merchandise to stock the store.
