Sara Costa's range firing scenes were filmed on the Alhambra Police Department's shooting range in South El Monte, California, USA. All scenes shot involved real, live fire, using a Smith and Wesson .357 Magnum Model 19 revolver. The director wanted to show her firing an impressive score, so it was decided that the instructor, Patrick Alexander, would be off camera shooting the target which would then be inserted as if it was fired by Sara. In fact she was doing very well in her firearms self defense training, and the target that was shown in the final cut was actually shot by Sara Costa.

According to a review published in the April issue of 'Box', the Strippers Convention depicted in this documentary "was set up specifically for this film." Film Critic Roger Ebert said in his review of the film published on 2nd May 1986: ''The movie claims to be about an international striptease competition being held in Las Vegas. But the contest is being held for only one reason - to provide a framework for this film''.

The name of the inaugural awards which were held at the First Annual Strippers' Convention in Las Vegas at the Sahara Hotel were the first ''Annual Golden G-String Awards''. The gong that the strippers competed for there was ''The Golden G-String Award''.

The picture's New York release in the USA was originally scheduled to launch at the Plaza Theater on 17th January 1986 according to an article published in the 8th January 1986 edition of show-business trade-paper 'The Hollywood Reporter'. However, the film's opening there was deferred about a fortnight until 31st January 1986.

Additional cinematography on this picture was actually lensed by famous Oscar / Academy Award winning cinematographer Haskell Wexler.
