The first person cast in the film was Corey A. Lucas, that was back in 2003.
The last person cast in the film was Nicole Lillie, she came onto the film 12 hours before the start of production after a call from Mali MacConnell.
This is the first feature film for the entire cast and crew.
Production was set to begin in 2005, with the script written and some props purchased, but production was held off due to Mali MacConnell not being available.
It took 17 production days to complete the film (not including pickup days).
Production began on July 14th, 2006.
Five different actresses were lined up the play Monique, with Nicole Lillie being the fifth.
The first scene shot in the film was when Paul picks Carly up at her house.
The last scene shot in the film was the final scene.
At this time, nearly 11 hours of raw footage has been shot for the project.
This is the fourth picture worked on by The Collective.
The green mask worn by The Hunter is a Jason X style mask.
The same campground location used for Mother's Day was previously used for the Friday spoof, Jason's Revenge.
The film is modeled in style after the first Friday the 13th.
Production was halted for one day due to a massive rain storm that hit the location. It flooded the campsite, soaked wardrobe and vehicles. The cast and crew regrouped and continued the following morning.
Mali MacConnell had not seen a Friday the 13th film until nearly half way through production on Mother's Day.
Corey A. Lucas has appeared in four of Cory's Friday spoofs, while Dave has appeared in two.
Benjamin M. Santos, while shooting the scene where he pulls up in the Jeep as Boone, actually broke the break line and was forced to drive it the remainder of the shoot weekend only using the emergency break.
The first weekend of production was the first time that Dave Conte had ever been camping in his life.
The hole dug for the scene where The Hunter digs up Jason's mask actually became a natural well and filled with nearly 3 feet of water by the end of scene.
In its three years of development, the script went through 10 drafts before the film was completed.
Director Cory Stevens and Author Eric Morse (aka William Pattison) came into contact after Cory posted a notice on the Friday the 13th Films Forum about production on the film. Pattison then joined as Executive Consultant on the project.
