Hi Aaliyah. How were your holidays?
Holidays
were spent with extended family and were
wonderful!!
Let's
start the www.racksandrazors.com readers off with a
visual. Describe for me the room in which
you're answering these questions.
I'm
in an office room. (No fun I know)
I
want to hear all about your role as Sasha in the
upcoming movie 'Hoodoo for Voodoo'.
Can you give me a little plot synopsis and let us
know how Sasha fits into the goings on?
Hoodoo
for Voodoo is a brilliant horror comedy written
and directed by Steven Shea in which a group of
kids "win" a trip to New Orleans!
They get mixed up in some voodoo magic and some
live, some die, some get naked together!
Sasha was a sassy girl with attitude to
boot. She and Bones her
"boyfriend" were always off "doing
thangsss"
I
know that the movie did some shooting in New
Orleans prior to Katrina?
That must have made hearing the news especially
tragic and surreal for you. Do you have any
idea if the shooting locales have been destroyed
completely?
I
do not know the outcome on our locations. It was
heartbreaking to see all that were affected and
who continue to be affected by the storm and we
are months out from when it actually happened.
When Katrina hit, I was in South Africa shooting
a film called The Silent Fall, which is set for
global release this summer.
I
also want to hear about your work as Agent Smith
in 'Death Plots' (2005).
Agent
Smith was a badass role in which I absolutely
LOVED to play. Written and Directed
by Jason Liquori, shooting
that short was just too much fun. I
mean, I got to take down a guy that was
twice my size!
Youre
so fresh on the horror scene with those two
performances thusfar. Do you plan to
continue to focus in the fright flick field?
Absolutely!
I LOVE horror movies!
Do
you have any other upcoming projects you would
like to plug, brag about, or let the readers at www.racksandrazors.com know about?
The
Silent Fall - set to be released this summer - www.tonight.co.za/index.php?

Hoodoo for Voodoo - coming 6/6/06 www.hoodooforvoodoo.com
Do
you have a star or role model who you look to
for inspiration and if so how do they
inspire you?
Oprah,
Angelina Jolie, Halle Berry, Vanessa Williams --
All pretty self-explanatory
Looking
back on when you were a little girl was there any
incident or sort of behavior that you look back
on now and say, "Yeah, that little girl was
destined to grow up to be in horror movies"?
Watching
Poltergeist over and over and over again.
So
what does it for you Aaliyah - vampires,
werewolves, creatures, aliens, psychos, ghosts,
zombies, witches, voodoo, etc?
VAMPIRES!!!!
Not
counting my own work, the last really good
horror movie I saw was ___________.
The
Exorcism of Emily Rose.
We're
pulling the car into the Aaliyah Madyun Drive
In. What three fright flicks are going
to be featured on the triple bill and what
goodies are they going to be serving up at the
concession stand?

Exorcist
Poltergiest

What
