It was produced by Gallaga and directed by Erik Matti under VIVA Films. Sequel A standalone sequel, Scorpio Nights 2, was made in 1999, starred Albert Martinez and Joyce Jimenez. Set towards the beginning of the end of the Marcos regime, it portrayed the chaotic economy of those years, when Ninoy Aquino's assassination was still very much talked about.In the retrospective review by film critic Noel Vera, the sensual scenes of Scorpio Nights were directly similar to Nagisa Oshima's controversial 1976 film In the Realm of the Senses but Gallaga only outshines Oshima in terms of psychological realism and suspense. Despite being provocative, it has been commended for its social relevance.
