Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Director Jabbar Raisani was a VFX supervisor on Game of Thrones before making this his directorial debut—hence the creature work punching above the budget.
The film deliberately mirrors post-9/11 military occupation imagery, with the aliens as stand-ins for insurgents and the outpost evoking FOB mentality—though it arguably borrows more than it interrogates.
