Here is director Gabriel Abrantes on why he wanted to tell this story and some of his influences while making Ameila's Children: "I wanted to make a horror film about family. I wanted it to have the epic family monstrosity of Sophocles' Oedipus Rex, and was inspired by the autobiographic references in Stoker's Dracula. What I mean is that the idea that horror was a sort of mirror that enhanced reality by distorting it was something that I wanted to try doing in this film. One of the main themes of the film is the primal taboo of consanguine sexual relations, and I wanted to make this taboo into a horror myth about generational narcissism, specifically how parents can be narcissists and how a mother could be so vain and obsessed with beauty that she would be willing to do anything, even commit the most messed up transgressions."
