See How The Monster in “Come Play” Was Created

“I grew up on Amblin movies, and they made movies that are very scary,” says Come Play director Jacob Chase in this new featurette from Focus Features. “And they weren’t afraid to scare children,” he adds.

Scaring children is one of the goals of Chase’s new film, and to that end, he utilized the kind of old-school production design and practical effects in which the hand-built and hand-made becomes deliciously creepy.
