How to present a mother killing her own child, and how twins kill their twin brothers, in the most horrific situations imaginable, were the challenges that w Delta z's creative team faced. Tom Shacklen said: 'In order to convince the audience that the mother might flip the switch and kill her own child, just to save her own life, this kind of violence has to resonate with the audience, imagine yourself doing the same in that situation, and at the same time we I don't want to make the violence too disgusting, I don't want the audience to just turn their heads and look to the side, and as a result, the important plot is missed. 'The perfect candidate for the job was special effects makeup designer Paul Heyer, who helped conceive some of the bloodiest scenes in the torture chamber.
Haye (Into the Jedi, Mutant Chronicles ) said: 'I got this script when I was helping Vertigo Film on 'Desperados', and I liked it because the violence was a bonus. The effect is about the means by which a distorted mentality engages in sabotage. When I heard that Stellen Skarsgard and Shama Blair were going to play, I decided I had to be there. '
He added: 'Tom and I sat down and watched different movies as a reference to discuss the psychology of abuse. I didn't want to use a single approach like Saw or Hotel Horror because I felt that w Delta z was more about pain than brutality. It was a great experience to work with Tom because he is very open to other people's opinions. It's weird though, I don't think we have any extreme visual effects to deal with, but w Delta z is the bloodiest movie I've ever worked on. '
Tom Shacklen added: 'I don't want the movie to have a scene that has been there before, we have to figure out a way to differentiate it from other horror films, and I don't want to be accused of plagiarism. We must make the audience feel that watching this movie is a unique journey into the uncharted territory of horror movies. We quickly ruled out dismemberment, partly because "Hostel of Horrors" has a similar scene, but more importantly because Paul said it, "Jane Lerner" can't do this kind of thing. '
It was the character of Jane Lerner who set up the process of abuse as explained by Shacklen. Shacklen said: 'Our biggest challenge is to invent all kinds of cruel methods, so that this female serial killer who has no choice but to use torture to test love. How did her personal experience influence her behavior? So Paul and I came up with a lot of scenarios, including that she might use a nail into the victim's nails, and it's interesting that she has a lot of ways to not let the victim bleed too much, maybe she's afraid of blood herself . Driving nails under the nails was a method of torture in ancient China. Just thinking about hammers and nails reminds me of Jane's past as an illustrator for children's books, and I can imagine her nailing the illustrations to the walls of her home using those same hammers and nails. After all, the way of tormenting people has to do with the character itself, and it cannot be done deliberately just to create a terrifying atmosphere. '
Shama Blair shared these thoughts with Shacklen, saying: 'Jane hates some of the psychological things she does, and we all take her for granted that she will torture her Tools are hidden away from attention. Instead of using torture for the pleasure of sexual abuse, she wanted to know some private thoughts about the victim. Shama thought of an inspiration, and she suggested that Jane was vomiting at one point, suddenly couldn't stand the picture in front of her, and felt disgusted by her behavior. This is one of my favorite scenes because it's an instinctive reaction, and it shows that she still has a bit of humanity. Shama also came up with her own ideas in the scene where she herself was raped. I originally planned to look at it entirely from Jane's point of view, so that Shama wouldn't have to do any difficult moves, but she didn't agree and insisted that she would play in person at the critical moment, so this movie has an important additional feature. At the same time, when the murderer commits the most horrific acts, it is necessary to force others to identify with the murderer. '
