All fight choreography for the film was done by Woody Almazan, who played Jake Johnson.
The entire film was shot in 6 days consecutively.
The film was shot entirely in and around Austin, TX. With a majority of the film taking place at Pioneer Farms and the remainder at Ghost Town, a tourist spot in Manor, TX.
The film name "The Ecstasy of Gold" is an homage to the classic 'spaghetti' western "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly", in which the song by Ennio Morricone is titled the same.
