Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Trivia

Shot entirely in North Carolina, the empty town was achieved through clever scheduling and actual small-town locations, not CGI.

Insight

The film's structure mirrors classic coma cinema like The Sixth Sense and Jacob's Ladder, but gender-flips the 'constructing reality' role.
