What happened to Dr.Reynolds?


Would anyone like to have seen that adulterer get what was coming to him? Could that actor not have been available for shooting the nightscenes? could there be a longer cut of this film somewhere that has the character being slashed? While we're at it, would anyone like to have seen that sheriff show up at the end, rather than courtney just crying on the porche? what say you?

The real question is what happened to Elizabeth? An adult surviving I can understand. But a college kid? They needed an explanation. Not that this movie will ever get a DVD release with that type of footage. Or any DVD release for that matter.

I don't know about not getting a DVD release. A number of old school horror movies have been getting DVD releases lately, some of which you wouldn't expect to be released, Girls Nite Out for example was just released on DVD.

I liked the sheriff as well. I thought he was hilarious, he playing the role to a tee. I have another question - Mitch, the security guard....is he dead in his truck or just passed out? Can anyone answer this?

reply

Granted it's somewhat pointless responding to a 2 year message, but just in case anyone else was curious Doc got cut due to budget restraints. I watched the movie since my uncle played the part and that was the first thing I asked him. My favorite part of the movie is in his girlfriend's room when they pan by her dresser and she has a framed copy of his promotional headshot.

So your uncle played the part? WOW!!!! Is there an email to contact you with? I would love to have his autograph, plus find out more info on the movie! Where it was filmed, how much, etc.
I am a HUGE fan of that totally underated movie! Please contact me: [email protected]

He probably realized he was wrong when his mistress started talking bad about his wife and he knew he didn't want to ruin his marriage so he decided to probably put an end to it by not showing up to meet the mistress. I'm sure when he found out what happened he's probably glad he didn't show up.

later that day he met some other woman and she invited him to an orgy that night .. he went .. and it turned out it was all a set up .. the woman who invited him lured him there so her friends could rob him ...
