| American Nightmare | comment |
American Nightmare is a 2002 Direct to Video Psychological Slasher Movie starting Debbie Rochon.On All Hallows' Eve, a group of friends gather to listen to a radio show. The host implores his listeners to divulge their deepest fears. Our heroes do so, not knowing what will ensure. There's a madwoman listening in, plotting to bring their fears to life...Not to be confused with the Supernatural episode or the 1983 Canadian film of the same name. | |

Downer Ending | |
| American Nightmare / int_4e3d253b | comment |
Downer Ending: Most of our heroes are dead. Jessie is tricked into killing her own sister. All the survivors are traumatized, and at least one is going to prison. Then we cut to our killer, taking some medication and bawling on her bed in an oddly sympathetic moment. Her father comes in, and sings her a lullaby. End film. | |

Named After Somebody Famous | |
| American Nightmare / int_5f930b19 | comment |
Named After Somebody Famous: There really was a serial killer named Jane Toppan in the late 1800s/early 1900s, though her favored method was simple poisoning, rather than the more elaborate murders in the movie. | |

Shout-Out: Our heroes are introduced playing a movie quote guessing game, where From Dusk Till Dawn, Halloween (1978) and Flesh for Frankenstein are quoted. The callers on the radio show mention being terrified by Psycho and The Vanishing. | |
