The rights to the film were owned by Roger Corman’s company, but after it went bankrupt, the film was shelved. It wasn’t until 1990 that “Trimark” released the film in wide release.
The film was shot in the state of Utah (the same salt lake featured in the film’s finale), in the cities of Boston and Plymouth in Massachusetts, and in Los Angeles, California.
The film was completed in 1988, becoming one of the last films from “New World Pictures” before it went bankrupt.
The scene in which the "witch" flies out of the plane's cargo hold was filmed with several takes. The cargo hold door on the plane opened with difficulty, so it had to be opened not by the actor, but by an airline employee.
Originally, screenwriter David Twohy intended to make the main character an ordinary kind-hearted person who fled the 17th century to avoid religious persecution and ended up in the 20th century, where he would be accused for the same reasons. After two months of working on the script, Twohy realized that this concept didn't work and decided to make the main character a villain.
After all the images had been approved, and after make-up and costume tests, right at the start of filming, Lori Singer suddenly stated that she refused to wear the prosthetics that turned her character into a 40-year-old woman, and subsequently refused make-up that turned her into a 60-year-old woman.
