Did You Know?
| Trivia | Bruises are visible on both Paige and Mari's legs during the scenes in the hotel room. According to interviews, the bruises were a result of filming the scenes in the forest, which were filmed before the hotel room scene. The makeup crew tried to cover up the bruises; however, since the actors did their own stunts, the marks were too severe to be covered up by any makeup. See more » |
| Goofs | The boat in the film for which they could not find the keys was a newer model Ski Nautique. These particular boats do not use keys. They use a four digit start code which you must input into the keyless ignition panel. This panel is marked by a big red start button. See more » |

What are the odds, man? Of course your little girl had a lot to do with it. You should be proud. How'd you make us, anyway? Did my fucking kid rat us out? That's it, isn't it? My fucking kid! Figured out who you were and blabbered his brains. Hey, by the way, y'all did a bang up job on my brother. He is really fucking dead down there! See more » |
