The plot involves moonshine runners in Florida who are trying to stay independent in the face of attempts by organized crime to take over their business.
At one stage the film was reportedly going to star Susan George and Roger Corman met with Jimmy Connors about playing the male lead.[4] Carradine signed in March 1976.[5]
The script was originally set in Georgia but was relocated to the Florida Everglades in order to take advantage of the beauty of that area.[6]
The film was popular and Corey Allen worked for Corman again on Avalanche (1978).[7]
