Production

Richard Franklin says he wanted to make a thriller along the lines of Patrick.

It all takes place in one room, essentially with one character, and a number of supernatural or otherworldly events. Not necessarily like Patrick, but it was actually what I said to Everett: "Can you give me something that all takes place in one room again?" And he said, well, could it be on a boat? And I said, okay.[2]

Reception

Visitors grossed $34,270 at the box office in Australia.[3]
