Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was Clay Staub's directorial debut after years as a second unit director on blockbusters like Dawn of the Dead and 300.
The film bombed so hard it became a case study in 'good creature design, forgettable everything else'—Javier Botet's physical performance as the 'humanoid' is genuinely unsettling, wasted on a script that can't commit to its own mythology.
