Actor Lance Henriksen talks about making of the movie on the Near Dark episode of the movie web podcast Projection Booth with the show's host Mike White. According to Henriksen, it was fun making the movie and he really liked the message of the movie about the tough time older actors have finding roles in Hollywood but the director didn't ask Henriksen to have his name in the title so Henriksen called him to ask him about that and eventually gave his approval.
