Lillith bathing in blood is a clear reference to Elizabeth Bathory, a 16th and 17th century countess who supposedly killed numerous young women and bathed in their blood, in an attempt to retain her youth. She and Vlad III the Impaler are the most common historical figures to be re-imagined as vampires in popular culture.
During publicity for the first film, Melissa George had expressed interest in reprising her role as Stella Olemaun in the sequel. According to producers, scheduling conflicts forced George to bow out and the role was recast with Kiele Sanchez.
Shot in 25 days.
The sequences in the sewer tunnels were shot in the basement of an abandoned mental institution.
