This horror movie’s filmmakers ”The Cairnes Brothers” – Colin Cairnes and Cameron Cairnes – have said of this picture in an official statement: “In the ’70s and ’80s there was something slightly dangerous about late-night TV. Talk shows in particular were a window into some strange adult world. We thought combining that charged, live-to-air atmosphere with the supernatural could make for a uniquely frightening film experience.”
