[Interview] Bill Moseley On Playing A Child Killer In ‘The Tortured’ And What It Was Like On The Set Of ‘The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D’

Fire in the Sky director Rob Lieberman’s latest, The Tortured, is now available on VOD, XBOX, iTunes, Sony Playstation, Amazon, and Sundance Now via IFC Films and opened in NY Theaters on Friday, June 15th.

One of the stars of the film is Bill Moseley (The Devil’s Rejects, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre Part 2, and Exit Humanity). Earlier this week I hopped on the phone with him to discuss a multitude of projects. In Part One of our interview we chatted about Exit Humanity and Manson Girls. Now, in Part Two, we talk The Tortured as well as his upcoming role in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D.

The Tortured also stars Erika Christensen Jesse Metcalfe, Fulvio Cecere, Alfonso Quijada, Chelah Horsdal and Thomas Greenwood. In the film, “The perfect marriage of Craig (Metcalfe) and Elise Landry (Christensen) is suddenly shattered when their young son is abducted and murdered. When the killer (Moseley) is brought to trial, he manages to plea bargain his way to a lighter sentence. Utterly outraged by this miscarriage of justice, the grieving parents decide to take matters into their own hands. They capture the murderer, imprison him and subject him to the same monstrous acts he perpetrated upon their defenseless child. The unforeseen consequences, however, challenge their ideas of vengeance, justice and the true nature of evil.

[Interview] Bill Moseley Talks First Time Director John Geddes And ‘Exit Humanity’, Gives An Update On ‘Manson Girls’

On DVD and VOD platforms June 19 from Bloody Disgusting Selects is John Geddes’ post-apocalyptic Exit Humanity, which portrays a young man’s struggle to survive in the aftermath of an undead outbreak during the American Civil War. The movie is heavily inspired by classic films such as Jeremiah Johnson and The Outlaw Josey Wales.

Horror icon Bill Moseley (Devil’s Rejects, House of 1000 Corpses) appears in the film as General Williams. I hopped on the phone with him yesterday to talk about what attracted him to the role and what it was like working with first-time director John Geddes. We wound up talking for a while and discussed a number of other projects, so I’ve decided to split this interview into two parts. Today’s installment will focus on Exit Humanity and touch on his role as Charles Manson in Manson Girls, while tomorrow’s portion of the interview will concern The Tortured and Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D.

Exit Humanity also stars Dee Wallace (E.T., Cujo), Stephen McHattie (Pontypool, The Watchmen, 300), and new horror hero Mark Gibson. Brian Cox provides narration. In the film, “How does a man deal with the loss of everything meaningful in his life, and the loss of mankind’s humanity amongst chaos and despair? Set in 1870’s Tennessee, Exit Humanity is the legend of Edward Young’s horrific and dramatic journey through an unexplainable outbreak of the walking dead to lay to rest the most important thing in his life, his son’s ashes. The bleak post-Civil War era backdrop highlights the severe divide that the United States was facing, and the true loss of hope that so many felt during this period in history.

‘Manson Girls’ Finally Swayed Into Production

 Manson Girls Finally Swayed Into Production

A movie we’ve been covering exclusively on Bloody for almost a year now has finally gone behind cameras.

Manson Girls, focusing on the female followers of cult leader Charles Manson, has quietly started production nearly a year after the project was announced.

Susanna Lo is producing via her Slomotion Studios and directing from her own script, with Taryn Manning (pictured), Tania Raymonde, Monica Keena, Stella Maeve, Estella Warren, Chad Faust, Ron Jeremy, Eric Balfour, and Bill Moseley all starring, as previously reported in various stories here on Bloody.

Manson Girls focuses on the period leading up to the 1969 murders of nine people. Manson and three followers were convicted in 1971 in the slayings. Lo told Variety that she’s aiming to illustrate how and why the girls came under Manson’s command.

The girls were all very talented but it was a very seductive time,” she said. “We really don’t want to sensationalize the story any further than it already has been. I’ve always been fascinated by how the girls came under the spell of this strange, manipulative man.

Manson is serving a life sentence in a California prison. READ MORE
