Between 1999 and 2001, during original filming and all the re-shoots which included changing the ending few times, there were several versions of the film which were shown at various test screenings over the course of entire two years long production. Some for example included two different actors voicing Rusty Nail (Stephen Shellen and Eric Roberts), and some didn't include the scene where Lewis and Fuller are forced to go naked into the diner, instead in those versions after the scene where they and Venna realize that Rusty has kidnapped Charlotte they are told by him to go to the cornfield (as shown in the alternate Rusty Nail voice actors video on DVD and Blu-Ray). But each version of the film would always get great response from test audiences.And there was at least one version in which Charlotte is killed by Rusty. Article about the film published in Fangoria #207 included a picture showing Fuller in a motel room looking at Charlotte's dead mutilated body on a bed. This scene was filmed during re-shoots and it was the part of one or more new endings. It wasn't included with other deleted scenes and alternate endings which were released on DVD, all of which were taken from different workprints of the film, which explains why each scene is in different quality. These workprints had even more deleted scenes which were never officially released.
