The film was originally conceived as an independently-assembled project by writer/producer Van Peebles. After completion, Polygram, who had previously released *[Posse](/source/Posse_(1993_film))* to moderate success, acquired the film for home video release, and in most territories sold it as a sequel even though it had no ties to the film and Van Peebles plays a character unrelated to his role in the earlier film.
