IFC Films and Shudder will distribute the movie in the US.
Filmed in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
Producer Roy Lee was quoted saying the following about the film: "I almost didn’t read the script, because I was like, ‘That is such a cheesy title. There is no way this movie is going to be something that’s not going to be just a B-movie.’ But then I was told by a person I trust, ‘You have to read this script.’ I am so glad I read the script. I don’t know if anyone remembers the show The Larry Sanders Show. Imagine that, and this is the last episode being shot because Larry decides to do an on-air exorcism that goes awry and causes this to be the last episode."
The Cairnes brothers said the following about the film: "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."
Written/directed by Cameron Cairnes and Colin Cairnes (duo behind 100 Bloody Acres and Scare Campaign).
