When a Scout leader's cellphone rings, it plays the theme from Dario Argentos Suspiria (1977) as a ringtone, which is one of the director's favorite films.
Many were surprised when the Belgian film ratings board gave this horror film an "all ages" rating. The Flemish Boys Scouts movement in particular took exception to this move, urging parents not to take their children to such an intense film. The film's producers too were very surprised by the movie's rating.
The scouts are camping near a village named 'Casselroque', an obvious reference to Castle Rock, Maine, which is the fictional setting of many 'Stephen King' stories.
First feature film for Jonas Govaerts, who played in the Belgian rock band The Hickey Underworld for several years. He stopped playing music because he had developed tinnitus over the years, a hearing condition.
This movie was made with the help of crowd-funding.
