"Scream was originally going to be called Scary Movie but was changed by Miramax at the last minute. -- Beetlejuice was almost called Scared Sheetless. Warner Bros. executives didn’t like the name Beetlejuice and pushed to have it changed to House Ghosts. Burton jokingly suggested Scared Sheetless as an alternate name, and was appalled when Warner Bros. actually considered it" I knew about Scream but I didn't know about Beetlejuice being almost called Scared Sheetless. | |||

"The dinner party scene in 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre' was filmed over several day. The food, which was real, wasn't replaced and there was a heatwave going on. By the third day, the looks of horror on the actors' faces was real, as the whole room had a stench that drove them out." I know that they actually cut the actress' finger because the tube on the knife wasn't working. | |||

"During the surgery scene in 'Dog Soldiers' there's a bit where Kevin McKidd punches out Sean Pertwee. It's not acting: Pertwee said something that upset McKidd and the resulting punch knocked him out. It was so good, it was kept in the film." Sean Pertwee was actually d*unk during that scene as well. | |||

"In the famous last scene of the film ‘Carrie’ Sissy Spacek hand is actually used. They put her in a box underground and she was given instructions when to grab the actresses hand. "Sissy Spacek wasn't first choice. Brian De Palma had his minds eye on someone else and didn't think she would make a good Carrie. Sissy only got an audition because her husband was the art director on the film. | |||

"Lamberts reaction to the chest burster scene in Alien is real. They didn't tell her she was going to be sprayed with blood " None of the actors apart from John Hurt knew what was going to happen in that scene so all their reactions are unscripted. Alien was originally set Aboard a b52 bomber and set in world war 2. The crew would be plagued by a gremlin that threatened the plane. | |||

Kubrick didn't get the Carson reference as he'd lived in England for so long and it was almost cut from the film. | |||

"The crew of the Exorcist thought it was cursed, they regularly bought a priest to bless the crew & cast. A fire completely destroyed the first set and it had to be rebuilt and by the end of the movies being made, 9 people associated with its production had passed. " I saw the Exorcist when I was 14 and slept with the lights on for at least two years afterward. | |||

"What facts do you know about certain horror movies that not many know about? I have a couple about the classic werewolf movie An American Werewolf in London. The five pointed star which is known as a pentagram or pentacle has been known to have been used to ward off evil spirits so it makes sense that it would be used in The Slaughtered Lamb to keep the werewolf out. The full moon occurs two nights in a row in the movie when David transforms which does actually occur. Those full moons are actually known as Blue Moons which makes sense with the songs of the same name and you can see a hint of blue in one of the shots of the moon." My most favourite movie ever!! Also. I believe most of the movie was shot in the same running order as the script, rare | |||

"The initial final script of alien had the landing team find the space jockey alien had scratched a triangular symbol on his dash board. This leaves them baffled until the storm clears revealing a huge alien pyramid that dwarfs the spaceship. The pyramid is a temple dedicated to the worship of the aliens and before Kane is implanted they find a complex engraving of the alien’s life cycle." The original script had the Xenomorph being a feral bloodthirsty monster for only the start of its life cycle, eventually the species would mature in to a mild and intelligent creature capable of art and architecture living a full scholarly life for 200 years - probably the space jocky/giants we know of today being their final form. The pyramid was replaced with the derelict space jockey ship in a script change due to both a lack of screen time to explain the origins and lack of money to visualise on screen. The purpose of the pyramid was solely used for the procreation process of the species. The pyramid concept was later revived and used in the first Alien vs Predator movie as part of a coming of age ritual/trial for the Predator species to produce the Aliens as dangerous prey/opponent. | |||

"In addition to the comment about Rik Mayall. John Landis has stated if he had known Rik was more well known in the uk as he initially thought, a bigger part would have been given. The Alien book written by Alan Dean Foster has a a lot of different dialog to the film. Also a few scenes are either different to the film or extra (even comparted to the extended film)." The novel I believe was based around the original script that had these scenes still in it. They were cut from the movie due to budget/pacing issues. | |||

"The Shining is famous for the huge amount of takes used by Stanley Kubrick, including one scene with 148 takes and another with 127." The bar scene (see below for a reminder) was filmed at the iconically named Stanley hotel in Estes Park, Colorado. Unsurprisingly, the hotel has cashed in on the connection to the film not least in the bar prices. https://www.google.com/search?q=the+shining+bar+scene&oq=The+Shining+bar+scene&aqs=chrome.0.0i512l7j0i22i30l3.4899j0j9&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 For decent Mexican food in Estes Park, head down the road from The Stanley to Ed's Cantina and Grill. | |||

"Actor William Holden was originally offered the role eventually given to Gregory Peck in the original, The Omen. Ostensibly, Holden initially turned it down after reading the script which he felt, conflicted with his Christian beliefs. However, after the commercial success of the first film, Holden seemed more than happy to put his beliefs to one side and starred in the sequel(!) "  | |||

Actually, another interesting fact regarding the film; The wondrously ominous main score by the late, great Jerry Goldsmith is entitled, ‘Ave Satani’. This is apparently a deliberate misspelling of the correct Latin, ‘Ave Satanas’ (‘Hail Satan’).
It has been rumoured (but never to the best of my knowledge, officially confirmed) that Goldsmith actuated this slight lyrical amendment in order to avert the invocation of any unwanted ‘dark powers’ during its performance. | |||

"Alien again! One scene shows the Nostromo entering the planets orbit as a monitor computer animation. To the right is a picture of Jonesy the cat as a kitten." Even more Alien. To add to the sense of scale some of the scenes on what turned out to be LV-426 were filmed with child actors in the space suits. | |||
