Cast[edit]

Production[edit]

Filming began in April 1999 in Limerick.[1] The budget was reportedly IR£1.6 million.[2] Most of Corman's films of the 1990s went straight to video but he wanted this one released theatrically.[3]

A mansion in Galway was built for the film especially. Corman intended to use this to film a remake of The Hound of the Baskervilles[4] but it was never made.
