According to Bloody Disgusting, the film is assembling an impressive roster of young talent including Sophia Lillis of 'It', Dylan Minnette of 'Scream', Jaden Smith, and Jacob Tremblay. This intriguing mixture of credible young actors sets the stage for what Neon describes as a 'horror hangout movie' — a blend of social commentary and chilling suspense akin to Ullom's previous work.
