During a recent interview, Appendage director Anna Zlokovic discussed why she wants to keep exploring mental health through the horror lens.
The Big Picture Mental health is present in all facets of life — whether it's at the forefront of one's mind, a fleeting thought, or something else. More and more, conversations surrounding mental health and how to approach it without stigma have become more prevalent. In the recently released feature Appendage, mental health takes on a very literal and terrifying form.
During an interview with Collider's Maggie Boccella, Zlokovic touched on her hopes to continuing tackling mental health moving forward, saying that "it is just gonna be a thing for a while in the movies that I want to explore. Whether it’s anxiety or depression or other mental health stuff...
For Appendage especially, Zlokovic shared how she noticed the film related to viewers following screenings, first noting how something such as anxiety is okay to talk about.
Anna Zlokovic Wanted to Portray Co-Existence Appendage may be horror, but Zlokovic's main goal by the end of the film was to showcase that even as horrifying as The Appendage is — or how difficult mental health can be – ultimately learning to co-exist with it is a solid way to move forward.
