This is believed to be the first feature film based on real life serial killers Charles Starkweather and Caril Fugate.
Mainstream Hollywood would not produce films inspired by the pair until a decade after this one.
A number of films were inspired by the duo (some very loosely) and included such major examples as Terrence Malick's Badlands (1973) and Oliver Stone's Natural Born Killers (1994)
