Background
The film was shot in secret, with filming taking place in the same house where the band recorded their album Medicine at Midnight. Production was shut down in early 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but resumed in Los Angeles months later, becoming one of the first films to do so during the pandemic. Six days of filming were planned to finish the film, but it ultimately spanned three weeks due to safety regulations.
