Production
The film was based on original story by Elizabeth Wilson of Arizona. She also wrote the script. Filming was to have begun in February 1951 with Howard Duff in the lead.[4] Duff injured his leg and was replaced by Macdonald Carey. The start date was pushed back to 26 March 1951.[5]
The cave scenes were shot at the Carlsbad Caverns National Park in New Mexico in April. The caves remained open to the general public during the day and the unit filmed at night.[6]
Castle wrote that "we lived underground like moles" and that "there was little excitement about the whole project."[7]
