Later reports stated Carpenter was deemed too old for Stevie Wayne and Biel simply did not want to do any more horror films.

2.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: A Farewell to Arms (1932)?
a.		Tom Ricketts (as Count Greffi) is supposed to be in this film but was not seen.
b.		Wes Craven: [Establishing] Wide, establishing exterior shots of Caseys home.
c.		In the original script, Paul Finchs name was Paul French, and Stiflers first name was Ryan, not Steve.
d.		This anthology movie is a five year project, in which the crew shot each segment at a pace of one a year. The first segment was "Boogie With the Undead", which was started in 2003 and finished in 2004. The second segment was "The Devils Due At Midnight" started in the fall of 2004 and finished in 2005. In 2006, the crew waited most of the year for the main host, Forrest J Ackerman, to recover fully from an operation. He ended up shooting at the end of the year. To finish up the project faster both "Cry of The Mummy" and "Her Morbid Desires" were shot at the same time. It took both years 2007 and 2008 for those to be completed. Thankfully, each segment took about a year, so there were no problems with actors aging, putting on weight, or losing their hair. All parts were then assembled together, making it a full length feature.

3.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: A Farewell to Arms (1932)?
a.		Samanthas gown was from designer Elsie Katz couture collection.
b.		In an interview with Charlie Rose, Ellen Burstyn stated that in her opinion playing Sara Goldfarb was her best acting achievement.
c.		After bringing the monster to life, Dr. Frankenstein uttered the famous line, "Now I know what its like to BE God!" The movie was originally released with this line of dialogue, but when it was re-released in the late 30s, censors demanded it be removed on the grounds that it was blasphemy. A loud clap of thunder was substituted on the soundtrack. The dialogue was partially restored on the video release, but since no decent recording of the dialogue could be found, it still appears garbled and indistinct. The censored dialog was partially returned to the soundtrack in the initial "restored version" releases. Further restoration has now completely brought back this line of missing dialog. A clean recording of the missing dialog was reportedly found on a Vitaphone disc (similar to a large phonograph record). Modern audio technology had to be used to insert the dialog back into the film without any detectable change in the audio quality.
