THANK YOU NICOLE- I AM GLAD TO HAVE BEEN ABLE TO HAVE THIS CHANCE TO INTERVIEW YOU , AN UP AND COMING ACTRESS AND PRODUCER- WRITER AND BLOGGER! THANK YOU - I AM GRATEFUL FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY!

JG- What put you in place to do horror movies? Was there a film in your past that grabbed you that you knew that you wanted to act and horror was the path?

NK -My mom was a big Stephen King fan, I grew up with films like 'The Shining', 'Cat's Eye', 'Pet Semetary', 'Cujo', 'Christine'... etc etc. So it was really my childhood that groomed me for what I most enjoy today. The Shining was the crowning moment of them all though, my mom and I loved to watch that as often as we could and it still remains my favorite horror film to date. One of the amazing things about Stephen King films was how they really relied on story more then hack and slash. It got you so involved in the world?? You were really scared!! They don't really do that much anymore so I hope that as I grow in my career I can bring that feeling back.

JG- What is your favorite horror movie (old and or new) ?

NK -Ha!! As I said above, The Shining. But I've had close seconds... 'The Descent', '28 Days Later', 'Rosemary's Baby', 'Halloween', 'Children of the Corn' and 'Nightmare on Elm Street' are some of my favorites as well.

JG- If you were asked to be in a remake of a classic horror- one that would be respectful to the original , the type that would make fans happy and feel good about the film, what movie would you like to do?

NK -Honestly? I wouldn't. To a great degree I think it's an insult to the original and a desperate need for creative material that Hollywood is lacking. BUT hypothetically? Maybe 'The Exorcist'... that would be one that could benefit from today's technology.. but because of the change in society? It'll never get the same reaction.

JG- If you had the opportunity to pick a cast and director to star in a movie with , who would they be?

NK -The people I'd love to move work with aside from Director Mitchel A. Jones? Well... I'd kill to do a Guy Ritchie Film along side some of my favorite actors, Stelio Savante, Cate Blanchet, Alan Rickman, Geoffrey Rush and Gary Oldman.

JG -What kind of film would you love to do ,not horror in any way shape or form and why ?

NK -ACTION!! I'm an action flick junkie. I love Hong Kong Kung Fu movies too. I love fighting and stunts!! I'd also love to do a period movie but a fantasy one like Pirates of the Caribbean.

JG - What would you love to do if film was no longer an option , something else in the film industry or maybe a whole different career all together?

NK -I don't have anything else. Film is it. =D

JG- Are you a reader and if so , what is your favorite book and author?

NK -Let's say, I used to be? When I was younger I read all the time. C.S. Lewis, Margret Weiss and Tracy Hickman, Dean Koontz, Roderick Anscombe, and a dozen others. May favorite though? 'The Secret Life of Lazlo Count Dracula' by Roderick Anscombe. I hope to one day turn that into a film!

JG - Now ,fun stuff, if I were to snag your IPOD - what music would be on it right now ???

NK -I listen to so many things.. much of it serves as background music to writing. I LOVE Phylr, Current 93, Download, I really like things that have no audience in the US. It's often melodic, trance, world, darkwave, and has no place in radio play. But at the same time?? I love Black Eyed Peas, Coldplay, Cradle of Filth, 30 Secs to Mars... the only thing I really don't listen to is bubblegum pop (ie Justin Beiber or anyone in the tween to 20 something pop range) and country music. (However I make an exception for The Charlie Daniels band..'Devil went down to Georgia' and anything by Johnny Cash)

JG - Any guilty pleasures? Music (secret Loverboy fan) , Movie ( loved Somewhere in Time perhaps?), maybe a Harlequin Romance (you know, the kind with Fabio on the cover ? Hehehe)

NK -Guilty Pleasures... I like teen highschool movies like, "Bring it On" or "Clueless". They have to be well done and funny though. Not much for romantic dramas though. I get bored really fast. (I also don't much like Jennifer Aniston or Julia Roberts.. but I'll watch Sandra Bullock all day). As for music? There are like two Brittany Spears songs I don't hate. And in books? I've nener read a romance novel so I'd call that a no.

JG- I also see that not just an actress, you do some editing and producing ! How did you come about doing this , with your acting ,did this come around as a “do it yourself” gig or is it something your really interested in doing more of ??

NK -I actually produce for a living. My partner and I don't talk about it much because we don't find any use in broadcasting our exploits (it's often a practice of ego or bragging to do) for us, it's just work. The jobs we do, people we've met and interviewed, places we've been flown to? It's not something that I think needs to be publicized.. it then ceases to be work and becomes a about trying to be the "it" kid. Problem is? The real people in this business will most likely just laugh at you for all of the boasting. As for acting? I've wanted to do that all of my life... or at least since the 6th grade (my first stage play).

JG - How did Triwar Pictures get started? What kind of things are on the horizion for Triwar??

NK -TRIWAR was generated into a legal entity in October of 2007. It was the first step in to a real career in filmmaking. Back then I had the grand idea that I was going to come out of the gate with a $2M project. I worked really hard at it, put in every resource I had, cast recognizable names, and 3 years later? Nothing. It was a lesson in reality. You have to start small and build your track record and your network. It's 2012 now and we're finally at that place that will allow us to move from a few thousand in budget to a few 100K and so on and so forth. I can't really say quite yet what's coming? But you'll know sooner then later!

JG - Last but not least- something a little more thought provoking!! What would you say in response to this quote ? “Horror movies do NOT make killers , they only make them more creative!” – I read that as a status on Facebook , and it really intrigued me !

NK -HA! Yeah.. I think the thing that makes killers is bad parenting, chemical imbalances, fits of passion gone astray... I've watched horror movies all my life?! But I cry for hurt animals, people in sad situations, life lost... It's the person not the entertainment that needs to take responsibility for their actions.

Now- guiltless self promotion ,spill it all- new projects- conventions , websites ? Anything- anything at all!

The only thing I want to promote more is my blogging at Alienbee.biz!!! Look for me as "ClutchNK". THANK YOU!!
