Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Director Federico D'Alessandro is a veteran VFX supervisor (Avengers, Avatar) making his directorial debut—hence the slick visuals on a tiny budget.
This came out months before Hereditary made Maika Monroe a horror darling, and years before Oldman won his Oscar—making this a fascinating 'before they were huge' time capsule.
