Trivia

This film was the second of a three-picture deal between 20th Century-Fox and producer Russ Meyer (the first film was Beyond the Valley of the Dolls (1970)). After the film flopped at the box office, Meyer walked away from his studio deal and returned to independent filmmaking.

In an interview many years later Russ Meyer recalled that with his substantial budget from 20th Century-Fox he had exposed a tremendous amount of footage, with over 24 hours of usable film, and in the editing room he decided to make quick cuts using all sorts of angles, with hardly any shot lasting more than three or four seconds as edited.

Russ Meyer cast his then wife Edy Williams. But she refused to film nude scenes, even though she had no problem being naked in previous films, because her new agent told her he could make her a star if she stopped taking her clothes off. So Meyer threatened to fire her and hire an actress who would strip naked. Williams immediately begged him to put her back in the film and said she'd do anything.

Final theatrical film of Lyle Bettger. For the remainder of his career he appeared on television.

Richard Fleischer was first announced as director in 1969.
