Invitation to Hell

Michael Berryman and Nicholas Worth, both employees of the film's villainous location of Steaming Springs, worked with director Wes Craven before. Berryman became iconic in Craven's The Hills Have Eyes (1977) (and later, the sequel The Hills Have Eyes Part II (1984)) and Worth played a henchman transformed into a monster in Swamp Thing (1982). Billy Beck, who played a mover, also appeared in Craven's Stranger in Our House (1978) as the sheriff.
