Production
The film was shot in Saratoga Springs, New York.[1][2][3] Filming began in either 2005[2] or 2006[3] and wrapped in either 2011[3] or 2012.[2][4] The deaths of cast members Chris Penn and Leo Burmester, as well as budget and schedule issues, served as reasons as to why the production lasted for years.[2][3]

The film was released at the Cinequest Film & Creativity Festival in 2013.[3] It was released on VOD on April 21, 2015.[5][6]
Reception
Gary Goldstein of the Los Angeles Times gave the film a positive review and wrote, "The result is a bit of a patchwork, one that’s often clever, other times convoluted, but always watchable — if only to see what might happen next."[2]
The Hollywood Reporter gave the film a negative review: "Aftermath offers little to justify its obviously long-delayed theatrical release."[7]
Jeri Jacquin of Patch Media awarded the film "four tubs of popcorn out of five."[8]
