Trivia:
|
- After viewing a rough edit it was decided that the movie was too soft, so they brought in special effects wizard John Carl Buechler for one day of extra "blood" filming. The thumb in the forehead and the redneck's head getting twisted were both done by him.
- The shoot lasted about 41 days and Ellie Cornell and Danielle Harris were required to be on set for most (36) of those days.
- The girl who drove Rachel and Jamie to the costume store was named Lindsey and is approximately 17 years old. In Halloween Jamie Lee Curtis babysat a seven year old named Lindsey.
- Dwight H. Little did extensive research on the history of Halloween and many of its harvest images were put in the creepy opening sequence.
- Leaves had to be imported and squash was painted to look like pumpkins.
