Anecdotes

Shot in ten days on a budget just under $60,000.

Writer/director Leslie Stevens used his house in the Hollywood Hills as Ann Carlyle's home in the movie - and the real empty house next door.

Director/writer Leslie Stevens and Kate Manx (Ann) were married in 1958, a year before this film was shot. They were divorced in 1964, and she died from a reported overdose a few months later that same year.

Thought to have been lost for more than 30 years, it has been preserved and restored by the UCLA Film and Television Archive.

Producer Stanley Colbert originally wanted Anne Bancroft to play Ann Carlyle.
