"post-production teaser" was cut from dailies, and placed on-line
on November 7, 2007.[5]
Trivia
- The film is inspired by real events that took place in South
Texas in the 1980s.[6]
- Doing her own stunts for the film, Erica Leerhsen was nearly hit by the
train used in the dream sequence when she lost her balance and
lunged forward. Her scene was shot with her only 12 inches
from the side of the train as it passed by at 30 miles per hour.
Unshaken, she insisted on shooting the scene again.[7]
