Curiosità

Triggered is a South African horror-comedy film co-written and directed by Alastair Orr. The film stars Reine Swart, Liesl Ahlers, Russell Crous, Steven John Ward, Cameron Scott with Craig Urbani and Sean Cameron Michael.

Production

Director Alastair Orr cited Kinji Fukusaku's Battle Royale, Kevin Smith, Greg McLean, and James Wan's Saw as influences for making the film.

The film was shot in the summer of 2019 at Appelsbosch Farm in Swellendam, South Africa. Filming took place only at night as the film is set throughout the course of one night. During the days, the core cast of the nine friends would bond over drinks and play Laser Tag as they had never worked with each other before.

In a 2023 interview, Liesl Ahlers admits that the smile she gives at the end wasn't meant to mean anything. It was the final day of a tumultuous night shoot and the smile represented her relief that it had finally ended. Yet, she did admit, she likes the fan theories behind the smile.
