haha

Teachers need money. Plus, it's something you can put on your resume.

I guess they weren't thinking that in 1987.

I remember seeing it in the theater and then getting excited when it came out to rent.

**Melis** · 07-07-2018, 12:36 PM

I think I saw it when it was on TV.

I remember watching it and wanting so bad to have a horror bedroom like Chainsaw has.

**Melis** · 07-14-2018, 08:51 AM

I'm surprised you didn't have a horror bedroom.

I never noticed this about the third top billing.

Quote:

The movie is notable for featuring a young Courtney Thorne-Smith who became famous later on, and because of this, now gets third billing on DVD covers for the movie, whereas on original theatrical movie posters this was not the case.

That happens a lot with new packaging. If someone becomes more well known years after the fact, they will put their name or face or both on the cover of a new release for sales.

I guess it makes sensr.

**GardenSirens** · 07-18-2018, 06:15 PM

That girl became famous? I've never heard of her.

**Melis** · 07-18-2018, 06:22 PM

Well, she had Melrose Place, Ally McBeal, and According to Jim. So she did have some claim to fame for a while.

That's right. She was in "Revenge of the Nerds 2" as well.

**Melis** · 07-19-2018, 09:15 AM

Oh, what did she play?
