the underwater part, in the opening scene, was filmed in my town at a place called Lake Rawlings. The things that were underwater are actually there. it attracts a lot of scuba divers. just thought i would share!!

Thats a nice story of some civic pride. In the movie, the scenes are less than a couple of minutes. How long did they film in the area? Its ncredible that two minutes of (simple scene) film can take a whole day to complete.

i think it did take them about a day to do it. its just odd because i live in a very small town in the middle of nowhere and its pretty cool that some movie producers (or whoever makes filming decisions) decided to come all the way out here to film 2 minutes of the movie.

Yeah, it was a great time to be from Baltimore when this came out.
