Trivia

 * Tran cites the COVID pandemic thriller Songbird and films like Alita: Battle Angel and Jason X as primary influences on the film.
 * The film was once planned to be about a human killer who tested positive for COVID-19 and plans to spread the virus by killing a non-infected family and take place during the COVID-19 pandemic but Tran reworked the film to be a sci-fi slasher and made the killer an android who kills to prevent the virus to take action on incoming controversies surrounding the original idea.
