Trivia In the original script by Dario Poloni, the second half of the film turned to be entirely supernatural: Langiva was revealed to be the reincarnation of the Devil, while Osmund "was actually in Hell and Hell being in the physical place."Christopher Smith rewrote the second half, changing these elements to represent the idea that to him "Hell is the Hell you are in within yourself."
