Rather than use a professional Hollywood lab to develop and print the film, the tried to save money by using a porno lab -- and the results weren't good. So at the end of that six day week (a night shoot that sent six members of the cast and crew to the emergency room with injuries), they blamed Director of Photography, who was then fired.
