* CastTheRunnerUp: A weird case. Mark Wahlberg had been recommended for David, but James Foley didn't think he was good for the role and had him audition for one of the criminal friends. On seeing the audition, he immediately changed his mind and declared he wouldn't direct the film unless he was cast as David immediately.
* FollowTheLeader: The producer admitted that it was the teenage version of ''Film/FatalAttraction'', and there were many other such thrillers in the 90s with erotic themes like ''Film/BasicInstinct'', ''Film/SingleWhiteFemale'', ''{{Film/Disclosure}}'' and ''Film/PoisonIvy'' (which was also greenlit in the hopes of being the teenage ''Fatal Attraction'').
* PlayingAgainstType: At the time, this was one of many darker roles that Creator/AlyssaMilano took to distance herself from her wholesome child star image from ''Series/WhosTheBoss''.

** The film was shot in the fall of 1994 but was released in April 1996.
** The original script made it clear that Gary was gay, making David's outburst seem especially bizarre.
** Another draft contained a different backstory for David, where his mother would have been date raped by a frat boy and then disowned by her family for getting pregnant. The frat boy would be Steve, and thus Nicole is his half-sister in this draft; so David is using her as a change to get revenge on his father.
