You're Next was shot in 2011 at a mansion in Columbia, Missouri. The filming process took place over four weeks, and shooting consisted mostly of night shoots filmed from 7pm to 7am.

The film was released for the first time on September 10th, 2011, in Canada. The film was a large financial success, with a budget of $1 million, and later returning $26.8 million in the box office. Due to the low budget, special effects such as pyrotechnics and CGI were minimal, but some prosthetics were used to create gory effects.
Distribution:
Due to the low budget, there was not much of a promotional campaign backing the film and little synergistic promotional activity. You're next was distributed by Lionsgate. Lions Gate Entertainment Corporation (or Lionsgate) is a Canadian-American entertainment company. The film was released via video on demand on December 27, 2013 and via DVD and Blu-ray on January 14, 2014. Some posters were made in order to promote the film.
