MARY
WORONOV
as Sister Cecelia
"I
have always been a huge fan of Mary's and was happy to
get the chance to work with her. She is also a writer and a painter
who chooses each project she does by how it meshes with
her own aesthetics. Fortunately, we have a similarly twisted
sense of humor."

JANET
TRACY KEIJSER
as Larissa Morgan
"Janet had been referred to me by Brad Sykes as an actress
who was talented and easy to work with, yet he'd never been able to cast her
in a really good part. Hours after she came in to read for me, I lost my original
lead. Thanks to a twist of fate, Janet finally got a role she deserved."
SHAWN
SAVAGE
as Sgt. Dick Sheen
"The young detective was a role that I auditioned a lot of actors for.
Shawn came in and blew me away, so I was sure I wanted him even before the call-backs.
He later confessed it was a challenge to concentrate on his peformance with all
the monster toys around my office to distract him."
as "Cherry Pie" Pulowski
"Steffi was introduced to me by writer friend Scott Phillips as a girl who had no problem doing nudity on camera. That was great but I had no idea if she could really act. Scott taped an audition that convinced me she could, so I flew her out from New Mexico to be in her first Hollywood film."

ATHENA
DEMOS
as Angelina
"I
found Athena on screamqueen.com.
Checking out her credits, I discovered she'd worked for two friends of mine.
They both gave her glowing recommendations. Her energy and willingness to help
the production any way she could bore out everything they said about her."

as Eddie
"Monica came in looking and sounding the part of Eddie, telling us, 'That's the role I want.' We already had the part cast with a actress who ultimately didn't work out. Monica stepped up to the plate and was willing to do all her own stunts, including being rigged on harness to climb out of a second-story window."
JOSEPH
TATNER
as Father Fogerty
"Joseph started his career playing roles on TV in
'The Brady Bunch' and 'The Partridge Family.' More recently,
he's been doing a lot of theatre around town. The main reason
I cast him was because he looks just like a '50s character
actor named Whit Bissel. Besides, Joseph actually once studied to be a priest
and had his own costume."

as Inspector Hinds
"I've gotten to know Mike since I cast him as a denizen of Hell in an effects sequence I directed on 'Tales from the Hood.' He's a damn fine actor who doesn't work nearly enough. The man is also an amazing jack-of-all-trades with a limitless array of technical skills. I made him an associate producer on the film since he did everything from recording a church hymn to building effects rigs as well as the sets."
CLEVE
A. HALL
as Lutkus
"What can I say? He's my brother. He played a number
of sinister characters in B movies back in the '80s. He
has also been the key fabricator at my effects company for
several years so he headed up our talented creature crew."
TOMI
X as Sheila (left)
"Tomi
is every fan's dream - a scream queen who does
makeup fx! She acted in the film and worked on
the creature."
SAYE
YABANDEH as Shelby (right)
"Saye
had not done much work as an actress but carried
off her bad-girl role with just the right attitude."
as Spider
"Here was an actor I'd known for years who's spent most of his career buried under prosthetic makeups. I thought it was time to show everyone how scary he was without makeup!"
as Annie
"Ashley is putting herself through makeup school doing modeling on the internet, which made her a perfect for choice for this film!"
