Trivia / Blood of the Tribades

• Cast the Expert: The film has a scene in which the character Acheron is tortured by being forced to walk on broken glass: He was played by Scott Dezrah Blinn, a sideshow performer whose act includes walking on broken glass.
• Queer Character, Queer Actor: Chloé Cunha, who plays the lesbian vampire Élisabeth, is queer herself (in fact, she does queer comedy improv).
• Throw It In!: There's a scene in the film where three of the female vampire characters, all wearing face-concealing cloaks and shot from a distance, climb up a stairway etched into rock above a waterfall: None of the cast was able to travel to the location they wanted to use, but co-director/co-writer Sophia Cacciola was, so she FakeShemped for all three actresses by climbing the stairs once, then compositing the shot to make it look like three people walking in single file instead of just one. She happened to adjust the hood of her cloak at a certain point of this shot, so in the composited version it looks as though all three women pulled on their hoods in a certain way in succession; this was left in because it looked cool and seemed like some sort of ritualized gesture that the characters might do.
