The outside of the "Buhl Mansion" in the film was actually the Buhl Casino founded in the early 1910s by Frank H. Buhl on his 300-acre farm that he turned into a park and donated it to the people of the Shenango Valley for families to come and enjoy.

[edit]

The film was advertised with the tagline "Years ago he shattered his life. Now he's back to pick up the pieces."

Reception

[edit]

The film only grossed $422,667 in the United States upon its spring 1988 release.
