Actors Cara Gee And Richard De Klerk Talk About The Indie Thriller ‘Alone Wolf’

Cara Gee (Call of the Wild) and Richard de Klerk (“Strange Empire”), stars of the indie film Alone Wolf sat down with me to discuss their roles in the film, their other projects, including Cara’s role on the Syfy series “The Expanse”, and more. In Alone Wolf, Jonathan (Richard de Klerk) lives sealed in his house. The walls covered in plastic and windows wrapped in paper. He does not suffer from agoraphobia, but a willful rejection of the outside world. His life changes when he meets a girl named Town (Cara Gee). Jonathan attempts to cut himself off from the world, but the world manages to draw him closer until he cannot help but let it. Horror Fuel: “What is it like to be a real couple, playing a couple in a film, like in Alone Wolf?” Cara Gee: “It’s wonderful.” Richard de Klerk: “It’s a dream. We actually met while playing husband and wife on a TV show years

Daniel Kraus Discusses Co-Writing George A. Romero’s Last Novel ‘The Living Dead’

You don’t get more prolific in the zombie genre than writer-director George A. Romero. When you hear the word zombie, his name comes to mind. Sadly, we lost Romero when he passed away on July 16, 2017. But July 16 left behind several projects, including the half-written novel The Living Dead. Romero’s widow wanted to see the novel complete, so she reached out to best-selling novelist Daniel Kraus, the same author who co-wrote The Shape of Water with Guillermo del Toro. Now, after years of work, the novel is complete and soon to be released. I sat down with Kraus to talk about The Living Dead and the process of bringing George A. Romero’s final body of work to his fans and the world. Kraus has a long record of delivering brilliant novels, including Trollhunters, adapted for the Netflix series Scowler, Rotters, and so many more. He expressed how honored he was to co-write the novel, and I think he

Final Destination’s Eric Bress Talks About New Film ‘Ghosts of War’

I’ve long been a fan of the Final Destination franchise, so when I heard that writer/director Eric Bress (Final Destination 2, The Final Destination) had a new movie coming out I was curious, then I saw the trailer for Ghosts of War and I was completely obsessed with getting a copy to review. You’ll be able to read my review now, but let’s just say I loved it! So when I got the chance to interview Bress I was beyond excited, I mean the man helped create one of the best horror franchises ever. Ghosts of War centers on five American soldiers assigned to hold a French mansion serving as an outpost near the end of World War II. Formerly occupied by the Nazi high command, the lives of the soldiers quickly descends into madness when they encounter a supernatural enemy far more terrifying than anything seen on the battlefield. Horror Fuel: “I love your movie. In fact, I’ve already

Adrian Glynn McMorran Sheds Light On His Roles In ‘Volition’ And “Arrow”

Adrian Glynn McMorran stars in director and co-writer Tony Dean Smith’s soon to be released film Volition. I sat down with McMorran to discuss his role in the sci-fi action thriller about a man who sees glimpses of the future and sets out to save a young woman, played by Magda Apanowicz. McMorran is not new to exciting films, he’s appeared in films like The Revenant and Warcraft. But you will probably most recognize the talented actor from his role as Michael Amar aka Murmur on CW’s “Arrow.” Horror Fuel: “You did a nice run on Arrow as Murmur. What was that experience like?” McMorran: “It was really cool. For some reason on TV, I end up playing a lot of bad guys. There’s nothing wrong with that. It’s weird because like in the theater world when I do stage stuff I’m more like a Max Glee kind of guy. I guess I look mean on camera. Arrow was fun

‘Silent Hill’ Actress Radha Mitchell Talks Theaters And Her New Film ‘Dreamkatcher’

I had the pleasure of sitting down with talented actress Radha Mitchell. Not only did she talk that iconic role in Silent Hill, but we also discussed her role in the soon to be released supernatural film Dreamkatcher in which she plays the role of Gail, a single father’s new girlfriend. Problems arise when a dark entity sets its sights on Gail and her boyfriend’s young son who are left alone at a secluded cabin, the same one where the boy’s mother was murdered. Radha has starred in many great movies during her career, including the creepy as hell movie Silent Hill, the fantastic 2010 remake of The Crazies, The Darkness in which she starred opposite Kevin Bacon, and 2004’s Man on Fire. Horror Fuel: “Silent Hill is a great movie and it was something we hadn’t seen before. You’ve been in so many great films, Silent Hill, The Crazies. You always seem to play a motherly type role.” Radha
