Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The quicksand pit was a constructed tank in Colombia; actors spent 14-hour days submerged in muddy water with leech checks every 30 minutes.
Beltran specifically chose Colombian rainforest to subvert 'gringo tourist horror' tropes—locals become saviors, not threats, flipping the colonial gaze.
