Enjoy Eshaan M. and Benjamin P. 's interviews with Jacob Chase and Azhy Robertson about Come Play
38Enjoy Eshaan M. and Benjamin P. 's interviews with Jacob Chase and Azhy Robertson about Come Play. Come Play is a terrifying new vision in horror. Newcomer Azhy Robertson stars as Oliver, a lonely young boy who feels different from everyone else. Desperate for a friend, he seeks solace and refuge in his ever-present cell phone and tablet. When a mysterious creature uses Oliver’s devices against him to break into our world, Oliver’s parents (Gillian Jacobs and John Gallagher Jr.) must fight to save their son from the monster beyond the screen. Directed by Jacob Chase.
Come Play follows Oliver (Azhy Robertson), an elementary school student with autism. He's a little lonely because he's different from everyone else, and so when he finds an ebook which promises friendship, he’s eager to read it from cover to cover. But in the book lies Oliver's worst nightmare: Larry, a monster who wants Oliver so badly that he’s willing to break through Oliver’s devices into his world just to take him away.
The production quality of this film is incredibly high. Jacob Chase, director and writer of Come Play, has written a spine-tingling script and puts forth his impeccable skills of direction in this film. David J Bomba, the production designer, meticulously designed each scene; his handiwork is magnificent. And Roque Baños, to whom the musical credits go, provides just the right low-pitched, deep soundtrack that completes the overall package of this horror indie film.
As far as the acting in this film is concerned, all of the performances are absolutely amazing! Azhy Robertson’s portrayal of Oliver is perfectly toned and well-acted; it is quite realistic and is unlike most representations. I also love Gillian Jacobs’ performance as Oliver’s mother, Sarah. She's supremely talented at emoting and her delivery is impeccable. Playing a mother is difficult; striking up the right emotions is a challenge, and it’s a great achievement to convincingly portray one. Absolutely awesome! Come Play releases in theatres on October 30, 2020.
