According to credited director David Winters, the casting of [[Reb Brown]] as the lead was due to the positive reviews he received for a previous film. While being offered the role, Brown asked Winters if he could hire his wife [[Cisse Cameron]], for which he accepted. [[John Phillip Law]] was hired because of his credentials and to add extra marquee value. [[James Ryan (actor)|James Ryan]] and [[Cameron Mitchell (actor)|Cameron Mitchell]] were hired because they had good working relationships with Winters.<ref name=":0">{{Cite book |last=Winters |first=David |title=Tough guys do dance |publisher=Indigo River Publishing |year=2018 |isbn=978-1-948080-27-9 |location=Pensacola, Florida |pages=4348–4411 |language=English}}</ref>

Winters explained that on the first day of production, he received a call that his father died. Upon receiving the news, he passed on the directorial duties to his assistant director Neal Sundstrom, and took the first plane from its filming location in [[South Africa]] back to the [[United States]].<ref name=":0" />

The funeral took a lot of energy from him, was emotionally distraught, and when it was done he decided to stay in the US to comfort his grieving mother.<ref name=":0" />

Eventually, the law firm in charge of the production contacted him to explain that on the contract with the investors, it was agreed that they would get a film directed by David Winters, and could sue if not delivered as such. Not feeling up to the task, Winters with producer [[Hope Holiday]] decided that he could stay in a hotel in [[Johannesburg]] for the remainder of the shoot and if any investors showed up he could go to set.<ref name=":0" />

Ever since Winters has disowned the film.<ref name=":0" />
