The main setting is the Talley family’s ridiculously luxurious hilltop house. You might be surprised to learn it’s not a real home – it’s a set built on a soundstage. The interior scenes were filmed at Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank, California.
Why is that cool? Think about it: the entire claustrophobic, trapped feeling was created in a giant warehouse. The production designed that house to feel both massive and suffocating at the same time.
But what about those sweeping shots of the house perched on a cliff? That exterior is a clever mix of miniatures and computer graphics. It’s like a magic trick – you see a real mansion, but it’s mostly smoke and mirrors.
