Curiozități

Nailbiter is a 2013 horror film directed by Patrick Rea. The movie was first released onto DVD in Japan on January 25, 2013 and received its American debut on April 5, 2013 at the Phoenix Film Festival. It stars Erin McGrane as a mother who defends herself and her children against a dangerous foe. Rea intends to film a sequel to the film, which is tentatively titled Nailbiter: The Storm Children and will feature Meg Saricks reprising her role as Jennifer.

Production

Director Patrick Rea first announced plans for Nailbiter in 2008, but production did not begin until the following year, as he needed to secure funding for the project.

Principal photography began in 2009 in Kansas City, Missouri, but production was suspended after approximately two-thirds of the film had been shot due to budget constraints. Filming resumed in December 2010, with an additional airport sequence completed in May 2011, after which the project entered full post-production.

While developing the script, Rea decided to focus primarily on female characters, explaining that he "felt like that would be more endearing as well as more compelling". Prior to filming, he asked the four lead actors to spend time together "acting like a family" to strengthen their on-screen chemistry.

Weather conditions also posed difficulties for the production, as the team frequently encountered the opposite of the desired setting—“the days [Rea] wanted to look stormy were sunny, and the days [he] wanted to look sunny looked stormy.”
