Production

Stearns came up with the idea by being inspired and fascinated with the process of deprogramming that was introduced by Ted Patrick in mid-to-late 1970s. He also stated that the interest came when he watched an episode of Cops when he was a child, in which "a girl called the police and was like, 'I'm locked in this hotel room and they're not letting me out.' […] and the cops told her that her parents knew what was best and that she had to stay.

Stearns cited Paul Thomas Anderson's works, namely Punch-Drunk Love, The Coen Brothers' Fargo, Yorgos Lanthimos' Dogtooth and Alps among the many works he was inspired by.

To prepare themselves for their roles, Winstead and Orser read the book Let Our Children Go by Ted Patrick and watched YouTube videos from that era of people in cults or people who had just gotten out of cults. They had both also created their own backstories for their characters based on Stearns' script. Winstead has repeatedly mentioned that Claire is her most challenging role to date.

The film was shot in 18 days in the Los Angeles area (Long Beach and San Pedro).
