Despite what the filmmakers had planned for Mike and Heather being constantly antagonistic towards each other, with Josh as mediator, it was Heather and Josh who fought almost constantly during filming. The directors found it incredibly difficult to piece together a version of the movie that felt cohesive enough for the audience to believe the storyline that Heather and Josh were actually friends who would work together on a project. Director Daniel Myrick stated in an interview that at one point in particular, Josh was quite venomous towards Heather (quote: "he was really laying into her"), and that he and co-director Eduardo Sánchez (with whom he had been observing the three from a distance, unknown to the actors), had to break the rules about not interfering to stop the argument before it escalated.
