QUEEN
CONGRATULATIONS
ON THE SUCCESS
OF “THE BARN.”
IT HOLDS A HIGH
RATING ON IMDB AND
ROTTEN TOMATOES.
IN REGARD TO THE
SEQUEL, WHAT CAN
WE EXPECT FROM
YOUR CHARACTER,
MRS. BARNHART?
FOR MY CHARACTER IN
“THE BARN” SEQUEL,
I HOPE THAT SHE
LOOSENS UP AND
GOES ALL BADASS!
YOU WERE ONE
OF THE VERY FIRST
CELEBRITIES TO PUT
OUT AN EXERCISE
VIDEO, WHICH WAS
WAY AHEAD OF THE
TREND AT THE TIME.
IT SUCCESSFULLY
BLENDED YOUR
HORROR FILMS
GENRE AND ACTUAL
WORKOUTS. HOW
DID THAT IDEA COME
ABOUT?
KEN HALL AND I
STARTED TALKING
ABOUT HOW PHYSICAL
SOME SCENES IN THE
FILMS ARE TO DO, AND
A LIGHTBULB WENT
OFF IN MY HEAD,
AND WE DECIDED TO
CREATE A EXERCISE
VIDEO TO SHOW HOW.
WE DID IT IN THE
FOLLOWING WEEK!
YOU WERE ALSO ONE
OF THE VERY FIRST
PUBLIC FIGURES TO
GO VEGAN. THIS
OCCURRED EARLY IN
YOUR CAREER, RIGHT?
YES, I WENT VEGAN
WHEN I REALLY
CLEARED MY MIND
AND SAW WHAT
HAPPENS TO THESE
POOR CREATURES.
IT SHOULD BE
OUTLAWED. SINCE
I WAS 24, I’VE NOT
TOUCHED MEAT. I
HOPE MORE PEOPLE
WILL REALIZE THE
TORTURE AND
WRONGNESS OF
KILLING ANOTHER
CREATURE.
THROUGH THE
‘80S/’90S, YOU WERE
KNOWN AS THE
QUEEN OF THE BS
(FOR B MOVIE FILMS)
AND ONE OF THE
“SCREAM QUEENS.”
AS A HORROR MOVIE
FANATIC, SOME OF
MY FAVORITES OF ALL
TIME ARE B FILMS,
BUT THROUGHOUT
THE YEARS SOME
OF THOSE FILMS
HAVE GAINED A
MAINSTREAM AND
EVEN HIGHER FILM
REVIEW RATING
FOLLOWING,
NOTABLY “RETURN
OF THE LIVING
DEAD” AND “NIGHT
OF THE DEMONS.” I
ALWAYS THOUGHT
“CREEPOZOIDS” WAS
AHEAD OF ITS TIME
SCIENCE FICTION
WISE, AND THAT
HAS GAINED MORE
RESPECT IN THE PAST
DECADE AS WELL.
