The whole movie cost no money other than what was spent on food to feed the cast/crew.
The title "Alien Abdicktion" was thought up by the producer, Christopher J. Tomlinson after the crew couldn't think of a suitable title after "Dude, Where's My Scar?" was discarded. It was originally a funny working title that ended up sticking because of the positive feedback.
Most of the movie was shot at or around Saddleback Church in Lake Forest.
Most of the actors doubled as crew members on the shoot.
