‘Locked’ Director David Yarovesky On The Technical Challenges of His New Thriller
Director David Yarovesky is no stranger to the horror world, from Brightburn to Nightbooks. But with his latest film, Locked, he wanders into entirely new territory with the claustrophobic, single-location thriller that takes place almost entirely within the confines of an SUV. Sure, one location might sound nice, but in that small of a space for an entire feature, you have to get creative to make it interesting, entertaining, and, overall, scary.
In the film:
When Eddie (Bill Skarsgård) breaks into a luxury SUV, he steps into a deadly trap set by William (Anthony Hopkins), a self-proclaimed vigilante delivering his own brand of twisted justice. With no means of escape, Eddie must fight to survive in a ride where escape is an illusion, survival is a nightmare, and justice shifts into high gear.
We spoke with Yarovesky about filming an entire movie inside of a car, the charming sweetness of Bill Skarsgard, and a very specific scene featuring Anthony Hopkins and a joint.
