HORROR, SCI-FI AND MORE PRESENTS: ALL HALLOW'S EVE PART 2: THE RETURN OF THE 31 DAYS OF HORROR.....DAY 17

 Day 17: Bought a ticket for a show....Didn't expect this!!!!
 
My pick for today is...........
 

 
During a break in filming, Stephen King took his son to a McDonalds, and as a joke, Joe was made up with bruises, cuts and scabs. The girl at the Drive-Thru called the police when she saw him.
 
Originally, in Stephen King's first draft 142-page screenplay for the film, the stories "The Crate" and "Something to Tide You Over" switched places. Making "The Crate" story number 3 and "Tide" story number 4. This is also how the Berni Wrightson Creepshow graphic novel adaptation turned out.
 
It is rumored that Max von Sydow was originally slated to play Upson Pratt in Creepshow's final story, "They're Creeping Up On You!".
 
Viveca Lindfors asked George A. Romero if she could improvised the scene at the tomb, she thought about the relationship with his own father and she had a hidden anger of George Tabori.
 
George A. Romero went on to adapt Stephen King's novel The Dark Half (1993) as a film. That film featured Ed Harris's wife, Amy Madigan. Harris went on to appear in Needful Things (1993) as Sheriff Alan Pangborn, a character who originally appeared in The Dark Half.
 
A sign leading to "Castle Rock" (Stephen King's trademark fictitious town) appears at the very end of the segment "The Lonesome Death of Jordy Verrill", among other signs.
