Filming took approximately three weeks to film. 18 days were spent filming the desert scenes and just a few days were spent for the indoor attic scenes.
The idea for the film came from Tom Hammock and Jacob Forman as they were driving cross-country to Texas to film the movie All the Boys Love Mandy Lane (2006) which also stars Michael Welch.
The Wallace Farm main location was a former meth house.
Michael Welch and Booboo Stewart both appeared in the Twilight Saga.
