Giuseppe Andrews, Alexi Wasser talk ‘Cabin Fever 2’

Published

on

On Saturday, LA Screamfest hosted one of the first ever public screenings of the long delayed Cabin Fever 2: Spring Fever. Was it worth the wait? BC says YES! Gross out gags, WAY politically incorrect humor, and no little pancake kids combine to make a sequel that lives up to the original. Before the film, BC got a chance to briefly chat with two of the film’s stars: Giuseppe Andrews (encoring as Deputy Winston) and Alexi Wasser, who plays the female lead. Check after the break for our exclusive chats, and check out CF2 for sure when it hits DVD early next year.
GIUSEPPE ANDREWS

BD: Did you think, a couple years later, you’d be playing Deputy Winston again?

Giuseppe Andrews: Absolutely not, it’s so crazy. I came in at the last minute and played the part. I was lucky enough in the first one to adlib my own thing, and people enjoyed it a lot so I got to come back for the 2nd one.

BD: How does the tone compare to the first one? Scarier, funnier?

GA: Well, in terms of my part? That’s all I really know about it. I got to ad-lib doubly, be even more bizarre, go even harder on the weird sexual innuendos… so it should be much more bizarre and funny, yeah.

BD: Is Winston still looking for a party?

GA: (laughs) Yeah, absolutely.

BD: Talk about working with Ti… his other movies have only had like 4-5 people in them, but this one has a much bigger cast.

GA: This is the first time I worked with him, and it was fun, yeah. We showed up and did our work, and he let me do what I wanted to do.

BD: Have you seen the finished film?

GA: I haven’t seen ANY of it, it’s been a couple years, so yeah I’m excited to finally check it out.

BD: And will Winston return in Cabin Fever 3?

GA: I heard about it, me and Mark on a road trip type situation, I would love that. Mark Borchardt is outstanding, I loved working with him. It would be awesome.

ALEXI WASSER

BD: Can you tell us a bit about your character?

Alexi Wasser: My name is Alexi Wasser, I play Cassie. But I have long blond hair in the movie, so you won’t recognize me.

BD: Have you seen it yet?

AW: I have seen it, everyone dies! (laughs) I’m just kidding

BD: In the original, females got it worse than the guys in terms of the deaths and gross makeups, is that the case again for Fever 2?

AW: Nope, this is totally different, this one is gnarlier for the dudes. Have you heard there’s full frontal nudity? With lots of oozing stuff.

BD: How did you get involved? Regular audition?

AW: I auditioned for Ti West and he thought I was neat and did a good job, and it all just happened. And I like scary movies and I liked the script.

We then just discussed my poor fashion taste and my cats, which I doubt would be interesting for you guys. But you can keep up with Ms. Wasser at her blog, ImBoyCrazy.Com!

‘Late Night With the Devil’ – Exclusive Clip Begins the Supernatural Horror on Halloween 1977

Published

on

The upcoming Late Night With the Devil is one of the most buzzed about horror movies of the year, currently 100% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes and earning rave reviews from both Stephen King and Kevin Smith. King raves that the film is “absolutely brilliant,” adding that he couldn’t take his eyes off it. Smith comments, “I love it. It’s Rosemary’s Baby meets Network.”

David Dastmalchian (Dune, The Suicide Squad) stars as the host of a late-night talk show that descends into a nightmare in the Ghostwatch and WNUF Halloween Special-inspired film.

IFC Films & Shudder will release the hotly anticipated Late Night with the Devil theatrically on March 22 before it heads to Shudder exclusively on April 19, 2024.

Begin the horror with a brand new EXCLUSIVE clip below…

David Dastmalchian stars as Jack Delroy, the charismatic host of “Night Owls,” and the film traces the ill-fated taping of a live Halloween special in 1977 plagued by a demonic presence.

The energetic and innovative feature hails from Australian writing-directing team Colin and Cameron Cairnes (100 Bloody Acres, Scare Campaign). 

The film premiered last year at SXSW. Meagan wrote in her review out of the fest, “Late Night with the Devil captures the chaotic energy of a late night show, embracing the irreverent comedy and stress of live television with a pastiche style. It’s a clever trojan horse for a surprising horror movie that goes full throttle on unhinged demonic mayhem.

“The ingenuity, the painstaking period recreation, a riveting performance by Dastmalchian, and a showstopper of a finale make for one Halloween event you won’t want to miss.”

Spooky Pictures founders Roy Lee (It, The Grudge, The Ring) and Steven Schneider (Pet Sematary, Paranormal Activity, Insidious), Derek Dauchy (“Al Kameen”) and Future Pictures’ Mat Govoni (“Lone Wolf”) and Adam White (“Lone Wolf”) and John Molloy are all producing.

Joel Anderson (Lake Mungo), Rami Yasin, and David Dastmalchian executive produce.
