Production

edit

The film was written and directed by Victoria Muspratt, a Canadian short film maker who worked as the assistant to the director of development. She wanted to direct but Corman did not think women would make good action directors. She shot a short film made with an insurance payout and persuaded Corman. The film was shot over 18 days with a budget of US$700,000. It was pitched as Dead Calm in space. Muspratt said, "I hope to make four or five more features with Roger’s `graduate film school,’ then, I plan to be the next Francis Ford Coppola."[1]
