My wife was like, Is that the safest thing?

But we had an hour-and-a-half-long discussion of what would you do?
BellessasAmber Alertis actually a 2024 remake of his previous film by the same title from 2012.
But clearly, the real-life circumstances that Bellessa went through made a profound impact on him.

But Bellassos wife brought him back to Earth:
I scoured the internet that night.
I was like, this idea is awesome, why hasnt anyone done it?
And we- yknow, Hollywood didnt give me $100 million dollars to make it.

And we had five thousand dollars in our bank account.
And my wife convinced me to make it found footage because there was no other way.
Shes like Youre a complete idiot, the storys great.

Lets just go do it however we have to do it.
And thats how it kinda came about.
Not many people even knew about it or saw it or whatever.

We werent just stuck in the car.
We could go on.
The police officer, 911.

Like, do the film that I always wanted to make.
And so weve been trying for the last 10 years to get that made, which is this.
Theres been so many emotions.

Its like, I love this, I hate this, lets move on.
But I always knew.
We had opportunities to sell the script…

I always knew that this film, this concept, our script was top-notch.
I just needed to get the opportunity to make it.
