Production
At one stage the film was called Quad-rena and Not of this Earth 2.[5][6]
The movie was shot at Roger Corman's studio at Connemara, in County Galway, Ireland.[7] Steven Bauer later called it "a not very good movie... It was a space vampire movie so we were shooting a lot at night. It was April and I remember it was very chilly and very wet. I don't know how I found myself talked into doing it. It was a low point in my life. But I really enjoyed Galway.”[8]
