    • Trivia
      Originally the interior of the house was going to be built as a set in an empty office space. After losing their first choice for production designer, the filmmakers were able to acquire a piece of property from a local contracting company. The house was set for demolition at the end of December of 2019 and had been vacant for months. Gabriel Carrer and Reese Eveneshen, now acting as production designers, had just under two weeks to completely decorate the house and get it camera ready for cast and crew. This included gutting one of the spare bedrooms and turning it into a Bathroom for one of the films biggest fight sequences. Through-out shooting, the cast and crew had to share the tight spaces and limited room of the house. There was only one working bathroom. The upstairs had one small room available for hair, make-up, wardrobe and cast. The filmmakers housed their production design materials, as well as the bulk of the camera gear and computers in the adjacent room. The rest of the camera equipment was kept in the house's unfinished basement. After shooting one of the violent scenes in the kitchen above, fake blood leaked through the vents and coated much of the equipment below. Located in the driveway outside was a Camping Trailer that had been rented to act as a small office, and the craft service area.

    Compelling and gory
    "For the Sake of Vicious" is like Blue Ruin dialled up to eleventy-stupid; tense, compelling and gory.
