Director Zack Ward on the film: “I’m really excited about it because it’s done in an ’80s style with practical effects. Our creatures are actual existing creatures, not just digital manifestations. We have talking lizard people and tortoises and chicken people and rat people and witches and magic. It’s fun.”[5]
