Production
After working as a cab driver, Kirk Alex sold his cab to raise money to shoot Lunch Meat.[1] In addition to directing, Alex also wrote the script, provided all of the film's funding.[2][1] As obtaining filming permits would've necessitated the presence of a fire marshal and police officer at a cost of $40 per hour, Kirk and his crew shot the film "outlaw style" filming in locations without permits until law enforcement showed up and forced them to leave with the crew all feigning ignorance they were breaking the rules.[1]
