She has a lot of cool stuff to talk about, including what she’s been up to since DEAD, how she got into playing Paula, the sister of Donna from DEVIL’S PLAYGROUND, and what it was like working with director Dante Tomaselli. Here’s a bit of what she had to say:
After such a long absence between films – what made you decide to get back into feature films and do Satan’s Playground?
I HAD DECIDED THAT SINCE MY CHILDREN WERE OLDER IT WAS TIME TO GO BACK TO SOMETHING I REALLY LOVED – I WAS REALLY HANKERING TO GET BACK INTO ACTING.
AT THE SAME TIME, I WAS DOING THE “LADIES OF THE EVIL DEAD” THING AND WE’D BEEN FEATURED IN A RUE-MORGUE ARTICLE IN THE SAME ISSUE AS DANTE TOMASELLI. HE WAS A BIG EVIL DEAD FAN AND E-MAILED ME AND ASKED ME TO DO THE FILM. THE REST WAS HISTORY.
How was it working with the likes of Dante Tomaselli, Felissa Rose, and Edwin Neal?
IT WAS WONDERFUL WORKING WITH ALL OF THEM. DANTE LIVES FOR MAKING HORROR MOVIES AND HAS GREAT VISION. HE’S VERY DEVOTED AND CARING WITH HIS ACTORS. HE ALSO TURNED OUT TO BE A GREAT FRIEND. FELISSA IS A VERY DISCIPLINED AND TALENTED ACTRESS, WHILE BEING A FUN AND CRAZY FRIEND AS WELL.
EDWIN NEAL IS FULL OF INSANE ENERGY AND CAN TALK QUITE INTELLIGENTLY FOR HOURS ON ANY SUBJECT (IN SEVERAL DIFFERENT VOICES AND POSSIBLY A FEW DIFFERENT LANGUAGES THAT I’M NOT SURE ACTUALLY EXIST).
PLAYGROUND looks to be a lot of fun, with some awesome players on board the project to make it one of the movies I’m most excited about checkin’ out this year.
