Producer [[Wikipedia:George Weiss (producer)\|George Weiss]] produced some of Wood's films, [[Wikipedia:Timothy Farrell\|Timothy Farrell]] appeared in several of Wood's films, and the writing and direction were strongly similar to Wood's. Robert C. Dertano is credited with the directing credit, while no one was given a screenplay credit. Rather, Weiss "suggested" the story.
