The Invitation Director Jessica M. Thompson on Making Her Horror Movie in a Báthory Family Castle

Ahead of the film's theatrical release this week, Collider had the opportunity to speak with Thompson about making this modern-day Gothic horror film. Over the course of the interview, which you can either watch above or read below, the director spoke about the importance of working with a female-led creative team, how filming on-location in a Hungarian castle helped set the mood, and which scene was the hardest to film. She also discussed working with Emmanuel and Doherty, how the production design weaves beauty and horror together, and more.
