The film's budget was only around $200,000, very low for a film of this scope and subject material. Tun-Fei Mou used a variety of cost-saving techniques to get an impressive, gripping film for little money. The gore was done mostly with real body parts both human and animal lending it a spectacular sense of grotesque realism. The vast majority of the actors and crew were Northern Chinese locals who were paid little. The People's Liberation Army also lent the production their support and most of the military equipment in film belonged to the Chinese army. Many of the Japanese soldier extras in the larger scene were Chinese army recruits.
