Trivia

The prison sequences seen in the film were shot at the Bathurst Gaol in Bathurst, New South Wales, Australia. The jail at the time had recently been damaged by inmates who set a fire during a rebellion in the 1970s. These riots had been the inspiration for another Australian film, Stir. That film had been theatrically released about a year earlier but was not filmed at the Bathurst Gaol like this film was. See more »
