As the titular character of M3GAN seems set to enter the horror hall of fame, the director of the already critically acclaimed movie, Gerard Johnstone, claims that a lot of this is down to the young actress who literally embodies the murderous doll.
One of the biggest draws of the whole film since the first trailer went viral has been the titular character, the AI doll that has walked straight out of the uncanny valley, M3GAN. She draws the eye in every scene she is in, whether she is sitting silently at the table or running on all fours like a predator in the woods. The creepy doll is a combination of many things, and audiences may be surprised to know that CGI is not one of the biggest elements in her creation.
