Norris said that he received negative feedback from fans over his love scenes. He subsequently resolved to avoid them in the future. Sequel Miller said he hoped to make sequels.

He seemed to enjoy it, but he wasn’t sure it was going to work. It was outside of the formulas he’d been doing. I think he was too much of a gentleman to ever say, “I don’t like this.” I just don’t think this was in his wheelhouse. He didn’t do any more slasher type pictures."
