The film's premiere was planned for Lancaster, Pennsylvania, an Amish community, but the town's mayor, Kendig Bare, refused to permit the screening because he considered the film too violent and sexy.
This was Victor Mature's final film for Fox, where he had been a contract player for 15 years.
One of the lowest-budgeted films ever shot in CinemaScope and De Luxe color.
Lee Marvin and Ernest Borgnine appeared together in Bad Day at Black Rock (1955) the same year as "Violent Saturday."
The year before, Victor Mature, Ernest Borgnine, and Richard Egan were all in the big budget Biblical epic Demetrius and the Gladiators (1954) (the sequel to The Robe, that featured Mature). All three large, muscular actors were gladiators, and Mature and Egan played bitter enemies. Ironically, in this movie, Mature and Egan are close friends while Borgnine, who was the strongest and deadliest of the gladiators, and who forces Mature to fight in the arena, is a passive Amish farmer who Mature has to talk into fighting. And lastly, in either film, Borgnine and Mature refuse to fight because of their religion, but then have to adapt for survival.
"Mrs. Emily Fairchild: Would you like me to have you thrown out? Linda Sherman: Why don't you get mad enough to try it. All I want is an excuse to pull that hair right out of your stupid head. [Mrs. Emily Fairchild looks away] Linda Sherman: Guess you don't have the guts."
"Bobby Martin: [while bank is being robbed] Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Chapman, Bank Robber: C'mere kid. C'mere! [offers candy] Chapman, Bank Robber: Stick these in your kisser and go suck on 'em. Now go back to your mother. Chapman, Bank Robber: Thank you! Chapman, Bank Robber: You're welcome."
