How the movie was made
In 2012, writer-director David Bruckner set out to make a film that would redefine horror. He began filming his new project, “Yellowjackets,” in his home state of Kentucky. The film tells the story of a family who are terrorized by an unknown assailant for three nights straight. Bruckner wanted to create a terrifying and suspenseful experience for the audience, and he succeeded in doing so. “Yellowjackets” is one of the most suspenseful films that you’ll ever see.

This mixture of practical effects and talent allowed for an intense and believable experience for viewers. “Yellowjackets” also has a unique visual style that makes it stand out from other horror movies. The use of blue and green light gives the film an ethereal quality that is both eerie and beautiful.

The Plot

The town’s only hope was for someone to find a solution. A scientist named Lewis Petter came up with a plan to rid the town of the yellow jackets by using a new kind of insecticide that he had invented. Petter put his theory to the test and succeeded in exterminating the colony within weeks.
