Yeah, kinda strange. I have to say, it's pretty hard to believe they had problems finding a place to shoot any scene, even a rape scene. This is a mere matter of having an idea where you plan to do things in the first place, before you get funding.
As far as the "defense" issue above, goes, it does seem as though some people don't get even basic elements of filmmaking, and, if you're going to do a sequel -- and, for god's sake, of a known piece of explotation trash like ISOYG -- you really, really should be better prepared for one of the key scenes of it.
It's like deciding you are going to make a WiP film, and setting it in someone's house because you couldn't find a prison to shoot in. REALLY? REALLY??
LOLZ. It's a degree of ineptitude that should make you not want to have your name appear anywhere on it, and never, ever admit to anyone that you actually worked on it for any reason at all.
I've always pointed out that Plan 9 is not as bad as some other films. Manos, Hand of Fate is my preferred example of the worst movie ever made, and that can be answered on one single score... the cameraman for P9 knew how to focus a camera, for the most part. This can't be said for MHoF. I don't think there's a single solitary STILL in that movie that's even vaguely in focus. There are other things about Manos that make it worse, too, but that alone ranks those two.
Even in BAD film-making, there are degrees of ineptitude that should be sufficient to say, "Leave. Go away. And never, ever, under any circumstances, darken celluloid with your efforts ever, ever again. And yes, I mean that. Never. Ever. In a thousand years, no matter what you think you've learned, by this creation alone, you've demonstrated eternal, unfixable incompetence in this field."
