OH NO I’M STUCK IN A HORROR MOVIE




This is a new, hopefully fun short interview template, where you imagine you are trapped in a series of horror books and films, it’s meant to be a lighthearted way to talk about the thing you want to promote without directly talking about it.  As with all of the other templates, please include a biography, the product you want to promote, any social media links or links to purchase your stuff at the end of the article and please attach a profile picture that we can use in the article.


You wake up and find yourself in a horror franchise, what franchise would you prefer to wake up in and why?
I’d have to go with The Conjuring, simply because it’s such a frightening franchise. The first installment about the infestation in the Peron house is the scariest of the three so far – and has one of the best “opens” of any horror movie I’ve ever seen – the Annabelle story. Plus, Ed and Lorraine Warren were just fascinating people (and were based not far from where I grew up in Connecticut) who had such a mastery of their chosen field, demonology.

You find yourself as the “Final One”. Which monster / villain would you most like to go up against and why do you think you would survive?
I’d like to go up against a xenomorph from the Alien franchise, but only if I’m armed with a Colonial Marines pulse rifle, flamethrower and motion tracker. Why? Because they’re at the top of the food chain in terms of lethality and the ability to induce terror. And they’re super smart. They’re the “perfect” organism.

And which creature would you least like to go up against?
Easy. Pazuzu. Why? The Exorcist is the scariest movie ever made, in my humble opinion, that’s why. There’s something profoundly terrifying about the idea of a foreign, malevolent force invading and taking over my mind and body. I’ve had recurring Exorcist-themed dreams ever since I first saw the movie in my college dormitory at the age of 19. A short, funny side story: That same summer, I was working in a small restaurant in Cannondale, Connecticut, and a woman and her friend sat down in my section for lunch. She was so familiar to me, yet I could NOT place her. When I went back into the kitchen, my boss said to me, “You know who you’re waiting on? That’s Linda Blair!” Then, he whispered, “Don’t put too many croutons on her chicken Caesar salad, I don’t want her head to start spinning around!” TRUE STORY!



You find yourself in Scooby Doo, which character are you, and who would most like to have as the other members of Mystery Inc?

Oh, good one! I’d probably want to be Velma. She was the brains of the outfit. She always remained calm, cool and collected. I have to believe she was always thinking, “Hey, guys – we’ve seen this before. It’s not really a ghost / vampire / werewolf / monster! It’s an old guy in a suit who’s gonna curse us out around minute 18 of this telecast!”


Not sure who I’d want in the group with me. Can we pick someone NOT in the Mystery Machine group? I’d have to go with Batman (he is, after all, the World’s Greatest Detective, and he actually was a frequent guest star on the show) and the Harlem Globetrotters, who I also think made guest appearances on Scooby Doo.

Pinhead pops round for an evening of fun, what are you pains and pleasures?
Pains:

The sound of people eating or talking with their mouths full of food – mastication.


The sound of people with a stuffy nose.


Pleasures:


Two fingers of Glenfiddich 12-Year-Old Single Malt Scotch


Pinhead plops down on the couch with me to watch the latest season of Evil.

The Wishmaster gives you three wishes:

1. You can wish to write in any franchise
2. You can wipe on franchise from the minds of everyone
3. You can date your horror crush

What do you chose?


I choose door no. 3 – date my horror crush, which would have to be Elvira, Mistress of the Dark. Who else could it be?
