Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Filmed entirely in Oakland with a crew of mostly Bay Area locals; several cast members are Oakland natives.
The film deliberately echoes 70s revenge thrillers but subverts the catharsis — Jack's 'victory' hollows him out further, refusing the genre's usual emotional release.
