Warning! Spoilers ahead!
No One Will Save You has become the talk of the internet – and director Brian Duffield has spoken out about its wildly unexpected ending.
"She finally gets something that she didn’t think she would ever deserve, and I like the idea that this kid who has gone through so much had a really happy ending, as strange as it may be," Duffield told The Hollywood Reporter. "I love horror movies that have a real slap-in-your-face ending, but I liked Brynn too much to slap her in the face."
The director's other horror credits include Netflix slashers The Babysitter and The Babysitter: Killer Queen, as well as the horror-comedy Spontaneous starring Katherine Langford and Charlie Plummer.
Added Duffield: "A lot of the ending stemmed from the idea that Brynn has spent all this time making her own world in a similar fashion to the aliens, and there is a little bit of a conversation to be had amongst these aliens that are now driving our bodies around, as it were... I didn’t want the aliens to be too empathetic, but I also think they understood that Brynn was a worthy adversary that doesn’t have to be an adversary."
