Production began in August 2010 for fourteen days in the Los Angeles area. The Malibu mansion that Hate and his cohorts take over has been used in many other productions, mostly notably David DeCoteau's 1313 films and sex comedies from The Asylum.
Release
Breath of Hate had a sneak preview at the Gorezone magazine Weekend of Horrors on October 2, 2010, in London, where it played to a packed house. The film had its official world premiere as part of 2011's Another Hole in the Head film festival in San Francisco, and as part of the Fangoria film festival in Indiana.
In January 2011, Sean Cain, the film's director, stated his goal was to secure a limited theatrical run for the film. After nearly two years of talks with distributors, he started a Kickstarter campaign to obtain funds for a January 2013 four wall theatrical debut and DVD/Blu-ray release. The $15,000 fundraiser raised $5,033 after one month, and the project subsequently failed to get funded. The film was picked up for a Los Angeles premiere in March by the CineMayhem film festival in conjunction with Dread Central, as part of their 2013 Indie Horror month, where it played alongside another Jason Mewes film, K-11, and the world premiere of The ABCs of Death.
On November 24, 2015, the film, now retitled The Last House, was released digitally and on DVD through the boutique indie distributor, Wild Eye Releasing. In April 2018, it was pulled from Amazon Prime due to offensive content.
