Production
The movie was shot in South Australia with the assistance of the Australian Film Commission. Director Mario Andreacchio later said:
Fair Game came out of a situation where we were wanting to make a movie that was a B-grade video suspense thriller. I wanted to treat it like comic book violence – it was always like a comic book study of violence. What amazed me and the thing I found quite disappointing was that it started to become a cult film in some parts of the world and people were taking it seriously. And that, for me, became a real turning point. I thought, if people are taking this seriously, then I don't think I can make this sort of material.[2]
Box office
Fair Game grossed $13,902 at the box office in Australia.[3]
