The writer/director of the film Arthur Grego is briefly seen as the first criminal to be gunned down in the store.
The argument between the female police officer and the owner of the store was completely ad-libbed and shot in one take.
Michael J. Renda was the only actor in the film to audition for his role. Everyone else is either a friend, relative, or colleague to the director.
The scenes in the convenience store were shot in less than three hours. The scenes in the surveillance room were shot in another location the next day, then edited to appear to be the same time frame.
