“And we’re looking at the gorillas and the monkeys and whatnot. This gorilla puts his arms through the bars, pulls me out of my mother’s arms takes me to the back of his cage.
“Opens the door. And it’s that scene in Planet of the Apes where it’s this wide shot and it’s a cart being pulled and the humans are in like a cart jailed cart. Then I woke up. Planet of the Apes creeps me out.”
Lisa also revealed a scary incident that happened while she was on the set of Nightmare On Elm Street. She said: “There was an incident where the scene where I’m looking in the mirror and pulling the pictures off, the intention was I’m going to dive through the mirror to get to Danny.
“So I’m standing on this platform in front of a mirror and they said, Okay, we’ve put little explosives around the mirror, and it’s just going to make the mirror just kind of crack and then the pieces will fall down.
“I’m like okay, so action happens. The mirror exploded and I was literally thrown backwards off the platform. Fortunately, there were people standing around, not that they thought they needed spotters while I was up on this platform and they caught me.

“I had candy glass in my hair. And of course, I was practically hysterical that was that was terrifying. They sent me home for the day because obviously, it was very upsetting. Someone’s head probably rolled that day because those explosives were not supposed to be so powerful.”
