‘Passenger’ Cast & Crew Talk Haunted Set in New Featurette: “It’s Not Your Average Horror Movie”

by · Bloody Disgusting

The road can be a scary place, but the set of Passenger — shot in Washington near the hunting grounds of the Green River Killer — may have actually been haunted.

“It’s not your average horror movie,” director André Øvredal (The Autopsy of Jane Doe, Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark) notes in the featurette below. “On location, a lot of people had scary experiences.”

In the film, a few weeks into their van life adventure, a young couple witnesses a horrific accident that leaves the driver dead. Soon they’re being pursued by a demonic stalker who’s impossible to outrun and follows them wherever they go.

Melissa Leo (The Fighter), Jacob Scipio (Bad Boys for Life), Lou Llobell (“Foundation”), and Joseph Lopez (Insidious: Out of the Further) star.

Walter Hamada of 18hz and Gary Dauberman of Coin Operated produce, with Jenny Hinkey, Nathan Samdahl, Pete Chiappetta, Anthony Tittanegro, and Andrew Lary serving as executive producers.

Written by Zachary Donohue (The Den) and T.W. Burgess, Passenger is rated R for “strong violent content, some gore, and language.”
