Hurd also spoke about working on the first movie with Cameron and working with a modest budget.

"When Jim and I talked about making this film we realized that it would be taken away from us if the budget was too high, so we engineered it so that even though it was a futuristic idea, even though it was science fiction, the technology came from the future," she said. "So the rest of the settings and locations and the costumes were all contemporary Los Angeles; we made the film for 5.6 million dollars."
