DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT FROM SETH WORLEY
Seven years in the making, I’ve made a movie that is 100% me, and I still can’t figure out how to describe it to people.
Ask me the genre, and I'll vamp for a bit, mutter something about Spielbergian horror comedy (not a genre), and then run away. Ask me who this movie is for, and I'll probably say, "everyone." And then run away again.
Executives, producers, and financiers would read this movie and either interpret it as "The Babadook if it were inappropriately funny and warm" or "Goosebumps if it were too good and weirdly dark." But to me, it’s Inside Out meets Jurassic Park. It challenges stigmas surrounding grief and explores childhood emotions, the darker places they can go, and how we live our lives in the wake of trauma.
This movie is my childhood. This movie is my kids. If I only get to make one movie in my life, this is the one. It's weird, it's thrilling, it's funny, it's deeply emotional, and hopefully, I’ve put enough of myself into it for you to find yourself in it, too.
