This week DEBBIE ROCHON
Lazlo - In the massive number of films you have been in, you have played many villains. Which one was your favorite to play?
Debbie - Wow, my first response is to say Lucia from Colour From The Dark. She was great! Although she was possessed by 'The Colour' so the things she did weren't really her fault.
If we are talking about a true villain, I'd have to say Jane from American Nightmare. She was so evil. It was so well improvised and the collaboration with Writer/Director John Keeyes was so on target. She was a great character to play.
Lazlo - So Jane was your ultimate villain role?
Debbie - Close, but unfortunately I was never able to play my ultimate villain. when I co-wrote Suburban Nightmare with John Keeyes I had worked on Deborah Rosenblad's character and completely based her on everything evil I wanted to do as an actor. She was everything I wanted in a villain, and two weeks before the production began I had an accident with a prop machete. I almost completely took off four fingers of my right hand. Everything was ready to begin in the production, they were not able to hold up production so Brandy Little played the character. After extensive surgery and physical therapy, I regained use of my hand so I was happy about the recovery but I was upset for quite a while about not getting to play the part. I still have not seen it but I am very happy the film was made.
Suburban Nightmare is one of the films featured in the upcoming Suburban Psycho Horror Collection from our good friends at Alternative Cinema. In fact, Alternative Cinema has dubbed August "Debbie Rochon Month" and is having a DVD give-Away contest and an awesome sale going on until the end of the month.
