A Visit to the Set of ‘Mold’
I paid a visit to the set of the Mold! this past weekend, which was shooting in Ronkonkoma, Long Island. The indie horror film directed by first timer Neil Meschino just wrapped up its principal photography. Special effects artist Jeremy Selenfriend (Aunt Rose, Pink Eye) was on hand to show Bloody Disgusting the carnage at hand.
Mold! Takes place in 1984, during the spawn of Ronald Reagan’s war on drugs. In Columbia, a mold is set loose on the coca fields – a government developed strain designed to put a kill on the plants before the drug reaches America. Things do not go according to plan, of course, and soon, MOLD is on the loose!
“There are exploding hearts, melting eyeballs, mass injuries and gunshot wounds,” Jeremy explained. “This has been an awesome platform to work on, because there’s just so much open variety on the work I’m doing – sort of a blank canvas off which I’m working. I’ve gone through gallons and gallons of green mold. The stuff we’ve shot so far looks great.”
I had a chance to take a look at some of what was shot, and this should be a messy horror-comedy debut for Meschino. If you’re familiar with any of Selenfriend’s films, you know that he takes the independent budget and squeezes some pretty advanced shit out of it. Check out some exclusive pics beyond the break. MOLD’s trailer should be released within the next few months.
Daniel Roebuck has been cast as Santa Claus in Terrifier 3, Bloody Disgusting can exclusively report.
Writer-director Damien Leone is currently wrapping production on the highly-anticipated sequel, in which Art the Clown unleashes chaos on the unsuspecting residents of Miles County as they peacefully drift off to sleep on Christmas Eve.
“I’ve been holding this secret for a long time!” Roebuck tells Bloody Disgusting. “I’ve been really excited about it. I’m actually entering into the movies that I watch. It’s extraordinary. This is Terrifier bigger, badder, best.”
Roebuck appears in Terrifier 3 alongside returning cast members David Howard Thornton, Lauren LaVera, Samantha Scaffidi, Elliot Fullam, and AEW superstar Chris Jericho.
No stranger to iconic horror properties, Roebuck has squared off against Michael Myers in Rob Zombie’s Halloween II, played The Count in Zombie’s The Munsters, succumbed to The Tall Man’s sphere in Phantasm: Ravager, and investigated death in Final Destination.
A distinguished character actor with over 250 credits, Roebuck has also appeared in The Devil’s Rejects, 3 from Hell, Bubba Ho-Tep, John Dies at the End, The Fugitive, Lost, Agent Cody Banks, and The Man in the High Castle. Incidentally, he’s also playing Santa in the family drama Saint Nick of Bethlehem, due out later this year.
Terrifier 3 will be released in theaters nationwide later this year via Cineverse and Bloody Disgusting in conjunction with our partner on Terrifier 2, Iconic Events Releasing.
