Your upcoming film Axemen at Cutter's Creek 3: Absolution -
in a few words, what's it going to be about, and what can you tell us
about your character in it? I mean, it should be pretty self-explanatory given the title... but
without giving too much away, I DEFINITELY get to play a character with
a few interesting turns and twists. What will you draw upon to
bring your character to life, and how much Mindy Robinson can we find in Maybelle?
I'm pretty sure that I've never NOT played a character that I haven't put a lot of myself into. It always bothers me when
people act irrationally in movies, so I think it's important to
add authenticity into every role by injecting your own persona
and flavor into it. How did you get involved with the project in the
first place, what drew you to it? I had worked with director Joston Theney [Joston
Theney interview - click here]
previously, and I liked the way in which he brings his vision to life... so I honestly agreed to do
it BEFORE even reading the script. That's a level of trust you don't often see in independent film, lol!
With Axemen at Cutter's Creek 3: Absolution
being a slasher movie, is that a genre at all dear to you, and to what
extent could you identify with the film's approach to the genre?
Even though I'm actually a comedic actor by trade, I've
fallen into the horror genre quite regularly throughout my
career. It's always fun and exciting by proxy... and I always
find a way to slip a little humor into it as well, because a
little humor in a dark situation reflects real life more than anything.
What can you tell us about Axemen at Cutter's Creek 3: Absolution's
director Joston Theney, and what has your collaboration
been like so far? He allowed me to play a detective on our last project, which
when you're often typecast as the bubbly, blonde bimbo was a great opportunity to do something completely different. Maybelle
as well is an interesting character that I haven't played before, which when considering that I've done over 180 TV, film,
and reality shows is saying a LOT.
As Axemen at Cutter's Creek 3: Absolution is currently running a fundraiser, anything you want to say to support the
campaign? I urge everyone to check out the perks, we're not just panhandling here... we're offering some really cool
opportunities and with as woke, lifeless and uninventive as Hollywood is now, it's become important to support independent film.

Any future projects you'd like to share?
I've learned it's kind of jinxy to talk about projects
before they're locked in, but I do regularly make content and
documentaries for my own show on America Happens called Conspiracy Truths, which
gets... super interesting, to say the least.

Anything else you're dying to mention and I have merely forgotten to ask?
I have a lot of fun independent films that are already out people would
love... like Range 15, Stand On It, CheckPoint, You
Can't Have It, and the psychedelic thriller I started in that's probably my favorite... Brides of
Satan. Thanks for the interview!
