1985 Version?[edit]

Someone recently added to this article mentioning that it's a remake of an earlier 1985 film of the same name. I can't find any record of the 1985 film on the internet. Maybe this is vandalism?

Suzie's IQ[edit]

An IQ of 200? What? ... 67.40.243.226 10:50, 30 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That's what the movie says. However its given as a rough number by an unreliable character: "Her old lady had her tested once, says her IQ was way up there, round 200 or some such shit." 121.44.195.249 (talk) 10:07, 29 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Uh, yeah; An adult IQ score of 200 is considered "unmeasurable." One hundred-sixty is usually the top value assigned. Special testing is required for subjects to surpass this. I rather doubt a young woman with a "200" IQ would look, act, and speak like Neve Campbell's character in the film.

On the other hand-- Neve Campbell is HOT. She scores a 200 on the Hotness Quotient. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 214.13.130.104 (talk) 14:59, 19 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Jesus, that's the point! While making everyone believe that she's naive and faking her own death, she was pulling the strings all along. 87.78.3.145 (talk) 16:01, 9 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Van Ryan?[edit]

Not worth referring to in the article, but does anyone know the genesis of this bizarre surname. Did the (presumably) Irish Ryans of Blue Bay marry into a German family? Does the book give any clue? The name is similar to the insulting name given to Frank Sinatra (Colonel Ryan) in "Von Ryan's Express". Perhaps the inspiration? Just wondering.....

WP:NOTAFORUM Do not ask these sorts of questions on article talk pages. The talk page is for discussions about how to improve the encyclopedia article, not discussions about the film itself. It is a film. a work of fiction, it is not real, it is made up. To give the question a serious answer anyway many names have been mistranslated or anglicized for whatever reason, and "Van Ryan" could in theory be a derivative of Dutch names such as Van Rijn. (The writer could also have purposefully picked a name that sounds almost real but not, so as to avoid accidentally using the name of any real people in the film.) -- 109.79.175.121 (talk) 07:16, 13 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
