Up and coming Scream Queen Michele Morrow, clad as a cat ("I'm a bad kitty!" - see below), has just recounted her short but impressive horror film career in Basement Jack, Bled and Silo.
Ironically, the busy and charming performer went through a horrific real-life experience on Basement Jack.
Pat Jankiewicz/Fangoria:You broke your neck making Basement Jack?
Michele Morrow: I was in a stunt accident right after filming it. We were doing a behind-the scenes day and I made a choice to come in and be part of it. They had a trampoline type device on set that uses hydraulics for car explosions in movies.
Pat Jankiewicz: An Air Ram?
Michele Morrow: Right! I stepped on it to fling myself up. It threw me up about 20 feet in the air, but then I lost my balance in the...

Although she appeared in mainstream stuff like Alias and The Young And The Restless, Washington-born actress Michele Morrow is clearly meant to be a Scream Queen!
With her good natured girl-next-door vibe, you find yourself rooting for her in the just-released Basement Jack (Written by Fango contributor Brian Patrick O'Toole) and hoping she doesn't become the maniac's last victim.
Michele Morrow has also been seen tangling with vampires in Bled and screaming, running and fighting in other horror films like Slaughterhouse Of The Rising Sun, Purgatory House and the upcoming Ashley's Ashes.
One can't help but notice while at Fangoria's Trinity Of Terrors in Las Vegas, the actress attracts appreciative stares from passerby. This may be because with her big blue eyes, elfin nose and long blonde hair, she looks like a Disney Cartoon princess come to life, but it's probably because she's dressed as a cat--in leopard print, with big cat ears and tail!

Basement Jack is a film from Brink DVD that was made for between one to two million dollars. A film that will see video store shelves this Tuesday, November 17th Basement Jack does not step very far away from the slasher films of the 70s and 80s. Jack stays mostly in the confines of a slasher formula, while offering some intrigue in the characer only known as the Manager.
Simply plotted Basement Jack undergoes some unusually harsh punishment for unknown wrongdoings from his mother (Lynn Lowry). Jack (Eric Peter-Kaiser) experiences torture from an early age and develops a taste for blood in later adolescence. Happy to share his experiences of torment with others Jack slashes, impales, and dismembers those unlucky enough to cross his path. Cue in a small love story, some aggravating cops, a police massacre a la Terminator and we have one recipe for blood, disaster, and gore!

12.00 Normal 0 false false false En-us X-none X-none MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Vampire culture has gotten the film treatment more than any niche of the occult world. The world seems to be ga-ga for vampirism; the inherent sexuality, the blood, the power - the elements come together each and every time to form the same movie, the only real difference is how the features are implemented. Bled definitely has a new angle on the vampire concept treating it as a mere means to be exploited for immortality instead of focusing on the immortality of vampirism itself. The blood of innocents sustaining the life of an immortal: old and mentioned in Bled. Where Bled hits a new vein is in how the vampirism exists and the elementary analysis of addiction that gets thrown in along with it.

Title: Bled Directed by: Christopher Hutson Starring: Sarah Farooqui, Chris Ivan Cevic, Alex Petrovitch, Michele Morrow and Ivan L. Moody. Scores: Technical: 70, Story: 45, Acting: 40, Overall: 55 Ever since I heard that one of my favorite singers Ivan Moody (Five Finger Death Punch, Motograter) , was going to be in a horror flick, I have been anxiously awaiting (with white knuckles) for the finished product. This was one of those movies that you want to like even before you see it, and trust me; I tried very hard to like it. It just didn’t have any guts. No plot, no thrills, no horror, nothing! It was such a disappointment; I cringe just [...]...
