Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The film echoes 19th-century 'freak show' exploitation of conjoined twins like Chang and Eng Bunker, but reframes the horror onto the parents and medical establishment rather than the children themselves.
Director Sally A. Ward reportedly crafted the puppets herself over six months; the twins' shared heart was sculpted from actual beef jerky for texture.
