Thanksgiving the fake trailer directed by Eli Roth for the Grindhouse double feature. I always thought this would have mad a better movie than either of the two that were made and wished they would make a full length version. Looks like my wish may come true according to IMDb, Roth will be directing a feature-film version of Thanksgiving to be released in 2013.

This film was also the inspiration for the showtime series The Hunger (1997) hosted by Terrence Stamp, one of my favorite and most original horror anthology series. It featured a phenomenal cast of familiar faces (including Karen Black, Joanna Cassidy, Daniel Craig, Bruce Davison, Giancarlo Esposito, Colin Ferguson, Jason Flemyng, Balthazar Getty, Lena Headey, Margot Kidder, Sally Kirkland, Jason Scott Lee, Chad Lowe, Stephen McHattie and Timothy Spall) as you’ve never seen them before.

80s Horror; How did you get involved in Acting?
Maria; I've literally been on stage since I was six years old, but, as there was no film industry to speak of in East London, the small South African town that I grew up in, I was only able to make the transition from stage to screen after I moved to Los Angeles in 2005. I remember watching the performances of such amazing actresses as Jane Fonda and Jodie Foster while I was growing up and thinking that, if I ever got to LA, I was sure I could do what they did. Well - lol - now's my chance to find out, right?
80s Horror; What did you do before you got involved in the movie business ?
Maria; I worked for several firms of accountants in the bankruptcy administration departments, and actually practiced as a Bankruptcy Trustee for about 15 years. I was constantly active in theater, though, and 2008 saw me make the final break from the accounting world when I chose to get into acting full time and appear in a show Off-Broadway.
80s Horror; What do you do for fun?
Maria; I work for fun... Seriously, the saying that goes "do something you love and you'll never work a day in your life" is TRUE! When I'm not acting, producing, directing or writing, though, I'm reading (usually horror!) or knitting my Scary Scarves =)
80s Horror; Which has been your favorite character that you have performed?
Maria; Although I have truly loved every role that I've played, the two that stand out so far is the guileless and extremely brave Sophomore in Tim Curley's fantasy/sci-fi feature "The Mudman" (which should be released in the near future) and the forbidding Mrs Dodds/The Fury in Fox's "Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief
", directed by the totally awesome Chris Columbus. Zombie Rose in Patrick Horvath's zom-com "Die-ner
(Get It?)" is also a favorite, as is the mentally unstable nurse in Dan Donley's "Shellter
", and both of these films are now available online. But there are so many amazing roles I've played - like the Demon in Claudia Damasceno's "Feed Me", Ophy Bork in David Molinari's "The Bork", and the Screaming Lady in Mark Edwin Robinson's "The Levenger Tapes" - that it's almost impossible to put one above another...

Maria; One of my most challenging roles was The Mother in Damon Shalit's "African Gothic" as I performed the role in another language: Afrikaans. Now, I am fairly fluent in Afrikaans but, at the time of shooting, I hadn't spoken it for over six years AND it was my second language, not my first, so AG was a fun and interesting shoot. For physically challenging roles, "Percy Jackson" must come out on top as I did all my own stunts including wire and harness work (which was absolutely FANTASTIC btw!). As far as emotionally challenging roles go, I play intense and dramatic roles all the time so, for instance, being asked to sustain a crying fit on set for six or so hours is not unusual for me. On set filming Jason Bognacki's feature "Another", I actually developed being emotionally available into a fine art as Jason likes say things like "OK, for this take, I'd like to see some tears...and...ACTION!". I adore this sort of challenge, though, and Jason is, by the way, one of the most innovative and uniquely edgy forces in indie horror film making today, and I love the time I spend on set with him.

Maria; I'm attached to several horror feature films at the moment, and I'm really thrilled about being able to act in all of them. On the list are Craig Ouellette's "Straight on till Morning", Steven Gladstone's "The Resurrection of Blake House", Cinephreak Pictures' (Jakob Bilinski's) "Visiting Hours", Mike Lopez's "Lizzie Bordon", Erik Herrera's "Ghostclown" and Carl Lindbergh's "Bunnyman 2". I'm also getting into producing - as MOnsterworks66 - and, at present, I'm attached as producer to Jon Craig's "The Road Killer" and, as producer and, hopefully, actor, to Jane Whitney's "The Stranger", where I'm co-producing with Devra Sari Zabot. Through MOnsterworks66, I'm also busy developing a number of feature horror projects, and I can see that I'm going to have LOTS of work to do in the future (BUT there's always room for more lol)...

The hit AMC series Walking Dead

is filming tonight in my hometown of Newnan, Georgia at Newnan High School and Drake Stadium. I was able to get some pretty good shots as the crew was setting up they are supposed to be filming all night till about 4 AM and have advised local residents to please excuse the late night gun fire. A few interesting things to note if you look at the school bus it reads King County Schools on the side which is where the series started out and where Rick Grimes was Sheriff, so it appears there will either be a return to King county of more likely a flashback to the events at the beginning of the zombie outbreak when Rick was in the coma. The other thing I noticed was there were 2 ambulances and 3 sheriff cars all clearly "movie" vehicles and not the real thing which further points to the flashback episode because there were certainly no EMS, police or ambulance services around when the episode left off. The one strange thing about the police cars is they were marked "Linden County Sheriff Dept." maybe a neighboring county to the fictional King county ?
Underneath the military style tents seen in two of the pictures was what looked like a makeshift field hospital with cots set up.
