Although the film was promoted as a rip-off of James Cameron's The Terminator, it is actually mostly a rip-off of Aliens, also by Cameron.

Despite the film's original title and artwork presenting it as a sequel to 1984 film The Terminator, it is not officially associated with that film. The plot has more in common with the 1986 film Aliens. Two years after Mattei's film came out, Terminator 2: Judgment Day (the official Terminator sequel) was released. Mattei's film was never released in the United States, especially under its original title due to licensing problems.
