This was Byron Haskin's last feature film as director, and the final film that George Pal produced under his contract with MGM. According to Haskin, the studio was so anxious to be rid of Pal that they deliberately sabotaged this film, casting it with the wrong actors, keeping the budget too low and skimping on the all-important special effects.
MGM announced plans to produce the movie with George Pal as producer/director during its 40th anniversary celebration in 1964. Unlike many of the announced projects, this one actually got made but wasn't released until 1968.

In fact, uh, two areas of pain are no more intense than one. Jim Tanner: [motions to the test chair] Now, would you care to try it? Arthur Nordlund: No, thank you!"
