It was after completing filming on this picture that Christopher Reeve fell from a horse during a ride and was confined to a wheelchair for the rest of his life.
The film was shot in the western part of Marin County, California. Director John Carpenter owned a house there, but the influx of outsiders – the film crew – did not sit well with the locals, and they made their feelings very clear, which greatly complicated the filming. According to Carpenter, for example, a neighbor would start mowing the lawn or start a chainsaw and saw wood just when the filmmakers began shooting, and he had to pay him to do all this at another time. Several times, locals even tried to break into the trailers with filming equipment. Because of all this, Carpenter grew to dislike living there, even though he had filmed some scenes from the thriller 'The Fog' (1980) in those very places.
Christopher Reeve (1952-2004) was kind and courteous to everyone involved in the filming process, but he maintained a deliberately cold demeanor with the children involved in the shooting, so that these relationships – as required by the plot – would be better conveyed on screen.
