History
Around June 2000, David Rudolph, who was the CEO of Silver Bullet Pictures at the time, wanted to take a break from making science-fiction films. Max Axis overheard about it and brainstormed ideas on what new film they can come up with. Max suggested that they make a monster film that is in the style of a B movie, to which Rudolph thought was a perfect idea.

Both Rudolph and Max watched a collection of B movie and exploitation monster films and use them as inspiration. After the duo finished writing the script for 3 months, production on Dawn of the Giants began in March 2001.
