This unsettling incident occurred while shooting the opening sequence of her iconic film, "Basic Instinct." In this scene, Stone's character engages in a encounter with her boyfriend, culminating in her stabbing him with an ice pick at the peak of their passion.

Recounting this chilling moment in her new memoir, "The Beauty of Living Twice," excerpted in Vanity Fair, Stone vividly remembers the panic that engulfed her: "At one point, we broke for a moment, and the actor didn't respond. He lay there, unconscious. I started to panic; I thought the fake retractable ice pick hadn't retracted and had actually killed him."

Director Paul Verhoeven's instructions added to the tension, urging her to "get angry in the scene" and demanding she "hit him harder" while exclaiming for "more blood, more blood!"

Stone recollects the distressing scene where she had seemingly struck her co-star so vigorously that he lost consciousness. "There I was, horrified, and drenched in simulated blood. And now this," Stone lamented. "It seemed like there was no boundary I wasn't asked to push while making this film."

Despite the ordeal, Stone received a Golden Globe nomination for her role in the movie, portraying a best-selling author suspected of a series of murders.

In her memoir, Stone also revisits the memorable moment when she first witnessed the film's infamous scene in which her character provocatively uncrosses her legs, revealing her lack of underwear. She describes storming off to the projection booth, delivering a reproachful slap to director Paul, and ultimately seeking counsel from her lawyer.
