However, a sniper round took out one of the windows on the production van on the last day. Also, there were no practical special effects for the bee scenes, including the scene where bees flew out of Creator/TonyTodd's mouth. And to top it off, Creator/VirginiaMadsen was extremely allergic to bees, so the production crew had to go out of their way to make certain ambulances were on standby at all times.
