In 2015, Steven Hoban announced that Clive Barker's short story "Zoombies" had been optioned for a feature film.

During production the choice was made to only give some of the animals a realistic fur texture as a creative decision to show the difference between the mutant and normal characters, as well as a way to cut costs.
