What's left behind the scenes
- Initially, the film was planned to be shot in Los Angeles, however, various filming permits, police and fire department fees, as well as complex logistics and numerous associated payments would have "eaten up" a significant portion of the project's budget. The relevant structure of the Utah state administration had long been courting the "Cannon Films" studio in the hope that they would move filming to Utah, and furthermore promised that no fees would be required for permits on state territory, and local residents working on the film could be paid less than anywhere else. Ultimately, the management of "Cannon Films" was persuaded to move filming to Salt Lake City.
- Sho Kosugi genuinely practices ninjutsu, and during the making of the film he also served as a technical advisor and fight choreographer.
- Many of the weapons shown in the film owe their existence to Sho Kosugi.
- Two weeks were spent filming the final battle between the character played by Sho Kosugi and the main antagonist. According to director Sam Firstenberg, this was due to the large number of special effects, the organization of numerous explosions, the debugging of technical devices, safety considerations, and the careful setup of cameras, not to mention hanging on the wall of a building at the height of the 20th floor and filming from a helicopter.
- Steven Lambert had to play some scenes entirely on his own because Arthur Roberts was simply physically unable to perform what the script required. Additionally, Lambert and Sho Kosugi rehearsed the fight scenes together, and Lambert also played several ninjas at the beginning of the film.
