This is the first half o a two-part project. The second half being Kumo no hitomi (1998) .

Production of this two part project took 1 month. Both films shot back to back with the same cast and crew.

Having been offered a small budget to make two films, director Kiyoshi Kurosawa and writer Hiroshi Takahashi each hastily wrote scripts. Both were versions of the same basic premise: a father seeks vengeance. Hiroshi Takahashi wrote Hebi no michi (1998) and Kiyoshi Kurosawa wrote Kumo no hitomi (1998) with the collaboration of Yôichi Nishiyama , and Kiyoshi Kurosawa ended up directing both films.
