Adrienne King to Direct Part of All-Female Horror Anthology
Adrienne King: Here's another thing that I didn't even mention in any of my other interviews. The people that did the DVD His Name Was Jason: 30 Years of Friday the 13th, actually cast me, and Dee Wallace, Heather Langenkamp and Danielle Harris, to do an anthology, female-directed, horror movie. How do you like that? It's like a Creepshow situation, so I'm reading scripts right now and, supposedly, Danielle Harris' is already in the can and, if you told me that I would have any opportunity in my life to direct a horror film... I am so psyched because every horror movie I watch, I watch it with a critical director's eye. I just can't help myself. I just never thought the opportunity would never come to pass, so I am just flipping out over this. I'm very excited.
That's great.
Adrienne King: Yeah! They already have the financing, which is amazing. Who knows. I'm just flipping out because, like I said, it's all come full-circle. I thought after I had a stalker in 1980, that was it. I didn't think I'd ever come back to the business, even though the business was always a part of my life, and now I'm having the opportunity, not only to be a part of it on camera, but directing? How cool is this! It's awesome and I can only thank Friday The 13th for getting me here. It took awhile, only 30 years later, but, hey, it was a fun ride. It was an outrageous ride, a real roller-coaster, like the movie Friday The 13th.
