The film was initially intended to be Bustillo and Maury's English-language debut and shot in the United Kingdom but they moved to a lower-budget French production after they found that they were losing creative control over their story. The two are also set to do a segment on Paris, I'll Kill You, a horror film anthology set in Paris, France.
