Early attempts to sell the script were unsuccessful because studios felt that the horror genre had become unprofitable. In 1996, Scream (1996) was released to great success, leading studios to once again become interested in horror properties. Eli Roth still could not sell his script, as studios told him that it should be more like Scream (1996). Many potential financiers also found the film's content to be unsettling, including not only the gore but also the use of the "n" word early in the film.
