<P> The primary filming location was an early 1900s farmhouse located on Quick Hill Road near Round Rock , Texas , where the La Frontera development is now located . The small budget and concerns over high - cost equipment rentals meant the crew filmed seven days a week , up to 16 hours a day . The environment was humid and the cast and crew found conditions tough ; temperatures peaked at 110 ° F ( 43 ° C ) on July 26 . Hansen later recalled , `` It was 95 , 100 degrees every day during filming . They would n't wash my costume because they were worried that the laundry might lose it , or that it would change color . They did n't have enough money for a second costume . So I wore that ( mask ) 12 to 16 hours a day , seven days a week , for a month . '' </P>
