Sam Raimi pranked Dylan O'Brien into thinking he had to eat real bugs for “Send Help”: 'They've been cleaned' USEnglish There's a scene in Send Help, director Sam Raimi's survival horror-thriller and borderline comedy, in which Dylan O'Brien's Bradley Preston eats a gnarly bug. The toxic new boss of his late father's company finds himself stranded on a deserted island with a quirky grunt worker, Linda Liddle (Rachel McAdams), whom he cannot stand. In an attempt to survive on his own, he hunts for food. Sadly for Bradley, the only creature he can find is a creepy crawly. "I prepared him to eat a real bug," Raimi shares with Entertainment Weekly. "He was ready, and we had them, but at the last minute, I told him we're going to eat a fake bug. I had never really planned to have him eat a bug. I just wanted to prepare him and torture him."
