Dane Clark had finished starring in Hammer's Murder by Proxy and was supposed to return to the US to star in some Westerns, but Anthony Hinds persuaded him to stay in England to star in Five Days. Filming ran from Nov. 9, 1953 to Dec. 16, 1953, and it was trade shown on May 12, 1954 at the Hammer Theatre. It was released in the United States by Lippert Pictures.
