Scout Taylor-Compton is no stranger to horror films, but a scene from Rob Zombie’s ‘Halloween II’ proved to be a bit too much, even for her.
The scene shows Laurie Strode’s (Compton) reaction to finding her best friend Annie (Danielle Harris) dead at the hand’s of a brutal attack from Michael Myers in the bathroom.
“That scene gets me so much,” Compton said, according to Daily Dead. “It’s the only scene that I’ve ever done in my career, of any of my horror movies, that I wasn’t able to handle. I had to walk off set after my close-ups because I just couldn’t stop crying.”
“It just felt so real to me, because Danielle is like a sister, so just seeing her like that was absolutely heart-wrenching. That was definitely my favorite scene that I have ever done, and it was the hardest.”
