While in production, cowriter/director Tom Holland was stricken with Bell's Palsy, a virus that paralyzed one side of his face. The effects could have been minimized had he gotten a steroid shot immediately, but the producers insisted he keep working, so it was 36 hours before he got to a doctor. It took more than a year and a half for him to fully recover.
Robert John Burke lost 20 pounds to play the role.
Originally the crew planned to do a more gruesome FX makeup which would have had Billy Halleck's flesh dangling off of his protruding jaw and cheekbones. Partway into filming they decided that this look was too horrific.

At his thinnest, Billy Halleck weighed 120 pounds which was a challenge for the FX crew, as actor Robert John Burke weighed 160 pounds at the time of production.

Everyone who eat pie die quick and bad. You got somebody? Billy Halleck: Yes. Tadzu Lempke: Yeah, you got somebody. [He starts to leave but stops] Tadzu Lempke: But why you don't do right? Eat your own pie. You die thin, but you die clean. Billy Halleck: Get away from me. Our business is done. Tadzu Lempke: [Pleadingly] Die clean, white man from town. Die clean..."
