The first test screening of the movie was hampered by sound issues and only got a lukewarm reception, but by the second screening, the makers had their first indication that the movie was as scary as they had hoped. Reportedly, attendants screamed in terror, and the wife of Twentieth Century Fox President Alan Ladd Jr. got so scared that she refused to leave her house for over a day. Several of the crew members later attended screenings where audience responses surpassed their wildest predictions, including people leaving the first row and requesting places farther away from the screen; people yelling at the characters not to do certain things; cinema personnel passing out; people fleeing to toilets and stuffing the speakers there with napkins to drown out the sound; and restrooms littered with vomit.
