Context Trivia / Tamara

Go To

1* DawsonCasting: 24-year-old Jenna Dewan, 25-year-old Chad Faust, 21-year-old Katie Stuart, and 23-year-old Melissa Elias. It can get strange given that Matthew Marsden, who plays the adult Bill, was only 32 when the film was made, resulting in Bill not looking that much older than his students.
2* FollowTheLeader: A shy, frumpy teenage girl with an {{abusive parent|s}} who [[BeautifulAllAlong just needs a makeover to look beautiful]] is the victim of a prank GoneHorriblyWrong, then goes on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge with the help of deadly supernatural powers... [[Literature/{{Carrie}} now why does that sound familiar?]] It even goes the extra mile by following the ending of the original book rather than that of the [[AdaptationDisplacement more famous]] [[Film/{{Carrie 1976}} film adaptation]], [[spoiler:having the villain's rampage be stopped when she {{Mind Rape}}s the SpoiledSweet girl and realizes that she wasn't so bad]].
3* RealLifeRelative: The photos of a young Tamara with her mother are actual photos of actress Jenna Dewan with her own mother.
4* ThrowItIn: Patrick's insult to Tamara early in the film, "trailer-trash whore", was ad-libbed by the actor. This was not in the script since writer Jeffrey Reddick himself grew up in a trailer.
5* WhatCouldHaveBeen: In an early draft, Chloe was going to be a closeted lesbian.
