Description
In this WFAA interview, Kevin Williamson reveals the personal story behind "Teaching Mrs. Tingle" and explains why the title was changed from "Killing Mrs. Tingle."
The writer-director discusses how the tragic Columbine shooting influenced the decision to rebrand the film, emphasizing that it's a PG-13 fantasy about believing in yourself rather than a horror movie.
Williamson shares autobiographical details about being caught cheating in high school and confronting his teacher, plus reflects on his first-time directing experience and the challenge of bringing his vision to the screen beyond just the written script.
