Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Cultural

Patterson developed the script after falling down a real ARG rabbit hole in 2019—the film's puzzle interface is modeled on actual defunct horror websites.

Trivia

The 'disappearance' effect was achieved through practical rotoscoping, not CGI; every vanished actor had to film their scenes twice, once normally and once against green screen for the erasure.
