Interview: Joe Davison – Director (100 Tears, Fearmakers, Experiment 7)

Joe_Davison_picture4

How did your days with “Beat the Dead Horse” get you ready for filmmaking? 

I feel that without those years doing improv comedy I would not have learned the essentials of acting. But, what improv really showed me was how to formulate a plot device to construct a proper script. Jumping from one character to the next and imagining what each character might be going through allows me to develop a stronger connection between all… More

Interview: Evan Bass – Executive Producer (The Eve)

Exclusive Horrornews.net Interview w/ Evan Bass, Executive Producer “The Eve”

How did doing homage posters for your movie, “The Eve” come to be?

The homage posters grew out of the style and nods we make in “The Eve” towards past, classic films. “The Eve” is very much a psychological thriller at times, in a very Hitchcockian build, and we wanted to include that nod in our poster campaign. We also filmed on location in Martha’s… More

Interview: Sierra Holmes (Scream Queen Campfire, Scream Queens)

Sierra-Holmes-scream-queen-6

The title “Scream Queen” became popular in the late 70′s & is still popular today. But in actuality they’ve been around since the fifties, they just weren’t given the title of “Scream Queen”. Beverly Garland (The Alligator People), Mara Corday (Tarantula) & Yvette Vickers (Attack Of The Killer Leeches) are perfect examples of actresses who became very familiar to moviegoers in the fifties & sixties who frequented horror/sci-fi films. The tradition continued through the sixties… More

Interview: Seregon O’Dassey

Seregon-O’Dassey-scream-queen-1

Seregon O’Dassey is an actress, model, and scream queen. She has acted in a lot of horror films but has a very diverse resume that also includes work on various soap operas. What I find particularly interesting is that Seregon at one point worked at a funeral home, and her job involved reconstructing corpses so that they look presentable for a funeral. She also did embalming and a lot more but these days she only… More

Exclusive Horrornews.net Interview: Chuck Taylor

Dragon Gate Wrestler

Who would win in this No Holds Barred Horror Genre Cage Match – Michael
Myers vs Jason Voorhees ?

I’d go with Jason Voorhees easily. Mostly because I’ve always found Michael Myers kinda boring. I’m a huge John Carpenter fan but Myers never really did anything for me

Interview: Darrell Smith (Rage)

Exclusive Horrornews.net Interview: Darrell Smith

Movie: Rage

Why did you decide to make this type of movie?

I decided to do this movie because like Christopher, I have always
loved Steven Spielberg’s “Duel “. I first saw it as a youngster and
was riveted to the television! I remember sitting down with my entire
family, including one of my favorite uncles. A great childhood memory.

Movie: The Human Centipede 2

Hello Emma, First off I’m so glad you reached out to Horrornews.net for an interview. I was reading your IMDB profile and there’s a spot where it mentions that after you moved to China you spent time catching lizards and insects (maybe even centipedes). Wow, did you ever think way back then, that one day you would become part of a Human

Interview with Richard Lovejoy
Actor, Writer, co-founder of Charred Oak Films

What made you decide to write Satan Camp?

Like all good stories about the origins of things, this starts at a bar. I was enjoying some whiskey with actor Kent Meister and director Scott Chinn, talking about this insane script I had just completed called Mosquito. That script involves bloody hordes of insects, large scale epic apocalyptic battles, body swapping (complete with totally bizarre sexual… More

Every now and then there is a director who makes a movie and just “explodes” on to the scene which their micro budget independent and they are totally embraced the world and suddenly you have you have you’re “Blair Witches” and you’re “Paranormal Activities.” Other times a director makes a good film but still have to work like hell to get their work out there.

buddy-giovinazzo-3

You know back when I was just getting my mind around becoming The Black Saint in the 80′s, I spent nearly all of my free time on the famed strip known as “The Deuce” here in NYC. Forty second street between 7th & 8th avenue was just a hotbed of sleazy, filthy, depraved drug addled fools. And then there were people like me, people who soaked up that atmosphere like they were sponges. There were… More

Lucifer Valentine - Interview - Slow Torture Puke Chamber - ReGORGEgitated Sacrifice 5

Cascading Intestinal Chunks with Lucifer Valentine “Slow Torture Puke Chamber” 

Note: This interview contains some really sick images, turn back now if easily offended

Modern horror no longer evokes fright from the dark recesses of the collective psyche. The screams of horror no longer are a cacophony of a primal atavistic nightmare unleashed upon both innocent and iniquitous prey. In fact it seems that the only howling within horror arises from its fans begging the… More

Interview: Lance Polland (Crack Whore)

Exclusive Horrornews.net Interview: Lance Polland
Movie: Crack Whore

What inspired you to make Crack Whore?
I was looking for a way to combine two genres I enjoy. Rape Revenge movies and screwball Comedies. CW is like mixture of “I Spit on your Grave” and “Dumb and Dumber”. I thought it would be interesting if the hillbilly rapist were really ignorant and dimwitted. In doing so it left the board wide open for the… More
