From the director:
"It had been a dream of mine to make The Return for two years before I finally made it happen during the summer of 2020. While the pandemic made production especially challenging, it forced me to be more creative and resourceful. I have become a better filmmaker because of it and am thankful for my extremely talented and supportive team. A year later, we have finally wrapped post production and I could not be more excited to share this little horror story with the world! Check out @the_return_film on Instagram for BTS content!"
