According to an unverified claim by director Doris Wishman, much of the negative for the movie was destroyed by a disgruntled lab employee. Wishman then spent the next few years re-writing and re-editing the film, mixing new and existing footage and adding a voice-over narration to the soundtrack.
The entire movie was filmed without sound, all the dialog and sound effects were dubbed in later.
Most of this film was shot in 1977.
According to cinematographer C. Davis Smith, Samantha Fox paid Doris Wishman $2,000 to get the starring role of Vicki Kent. This may account for Wishman's claim that the original print was destroyed in a fire, as the re-shoots primarily focused on Fox. Davis suggests that Wishman took the money, and then fabricated the story as an excuse to re-shoot with a new lead actress (Fox), but he admits he doesn't know for sure.
