ADDITIONAL CONVENTION FACTOIDS

Shawnee Smith (The Blob, Saw) admitted that Diane Lane was originally supposed to play her part in The Stand miniseries, but had to drop out due to a pregnancy.

– In the same panel discussion, she also dropped some interesting knowledge on the inner workings of the Saw filmmaking process, admitting that she only spent a half-day on the set of the first film, while Saw II’s ending was written just one week before filming.

Fangoria, the world’s longest-running horror magazine, has been in monthly publication since 1979. Since then, they’ve branched into the world of straight-to-video horror (I, Zombie, Lady of the Lake), and into the airwaves with their Sirius satellite show Fangoria Radio, as well as Fangoria TV, which can be accessed online.
