"Tension and fear go hand-in-hand," says director Jaume Collet-Serra. "The horror aspect comes in with the brutal violence the family and others face in fighting this little girl, this enemy on the inside. I think that horror and psychological thriller are a good combination."
"It's a movie you want to see multiple times because there is so much you could have missed the first time," says producer Leonardo DiCaprio. "I'm proud of the film and everyone who helped bring it to the screen."
Producer Susan Downey states, "We were definitely trying to tap into a primal fear that people have about what they allow into their homes, or into their lives. And I think with the best intentions Kate and John open their home to Esther, and they get completely undermined by this girl. That's something that I think will get to people, that hopefully will create fear in viewers. But I think also that the mistakes these characters have made in their past come back to haunt them because they allow this girl to get in there and find out their darkest secrets. And everybody has a secret--Kate has secrets in her past, John has secrets in his. Even Max is being forced to keep secrets. Of course, Esther has the biggest secret of all."
Producer Joel Silver sums it up, "'Orphan' is a sophisticated movie that's also scary and thrilling and disturbing. It's not just an evil child movie, there's something much more insidious going on. It's going to keep audiences guessing, 'What is wrong with Esther?' And of course, we want them talking about it. But we hope they don't spoil the secret."
