Anna Kendrick's upcoming movie A Simple Favor tells the story of a mommy vlogger who gets into trouble when she befriends a mysterious woman played by Blake Lively.

Since Kendrick herself is neither a mother nor a vlogger, she had to do a lot of research for the part, she told Seth Meyers on Late Night.

And, as it turns out, she found some of the mommy content on Youtube kind of disturbing. Some of them she found to be "really creepy," in fact.

"You're like 'okay, do you have a kid?'" says Kendrick, "'or is it like a doll that you love a lot?.'"
