The production of EXIT took place at the onset of the economic crisis in Spain, several affiliated production facilities have gone under shortly after shooting the film, including the main shooting location, dubbing studio and sound mixing studio.
Writer/Director Michel Goossens took main inspiration for writing the script from ideas presented in the book Conciousness Beyond Life, by Cardiologist Pim van Lommel, and philosophical theories on quantum mechanics.
Although EXIT was never intended by the filmmakers to be a horror film, the movie played at over 20 festivals worldwide, of which the majority were horror genre festivals.
