Trivia

Before she signed on, Meryl Streep had never seen any of Wes Craven 's movies, calling herself a "wimp" in regards to horror films. However, Streep's teenaged son lauded Craven's skills as a storyteller and she respected his success in the genre, so she signed on and the two enjoyed working together with Craven saying Streep "took me as an equal, as a collaborator and that was just a huge honor."
