| Cabin Fever on Fear.net list of The Great Outdoors Edition | ||
Fear.net gathered some of the best examples of sex in the great outdoors in film gone awry for your educational pleasure.And Cabin Fever of course was listed in that bunch. ![]() ![]() Fewer things strike a collective nerve as hard as gross mishaps during sex. Who wants to have their joy interrupted by something nasty happening in/around/on their body? In Eli Roth’s Cabin Fever a group of friends spend spring break at a cabin in the woods (because nothing bad ever happens in cabins in the woods, you guys). It’s all beer and bikinis and good times until they start contracting a deadly virus that causes their skin to rot off. Paul (Rider Strong) decides to visit Karen (Jordan Ladd) in the bedroom to, uh, cheer her up while she’s feeling under the weather. What begins as innocent hand-in-the-underwear business takes a decidedly icky turn when Paul discovers he’s been tending to an open sore rather than her business center. Paul’s unfortunate sexcapades don’t end here, though. Seriously, when all of your friends are literally falling apart, maybe the last thing you should be concerned with is getting off, you selfish jerk. Marcy (Cerina Vincent) and Paul have a little, “Oh, what the hell, we’re all dying anyway” hook-up later in the film, and when Paul gives Marcy’s back a little love-scratch he claws her skin off. Lesson learned: Cabins are off limits. ![]() | ||

| Cerina Vincent Talks MoniKa from the Set & MoniKa Poster Debut | ||
Part one is here in which the Director Steven Monroe from the set of MoniKa talks about the film.And for those of you who do not know Cerina Vincent is the Co-executive producer and she gave a great interview about the film and Cerina also showing that she is not no dumb blonde and almost getting into a fight at a pool a must read below interview. ![]() ![]() In Part 2 of our coverage of Dread Central’s set visit to writer/director Steven R. Monroe’s psychological revenge thriller MoniKa last June at the Big Picture Soundstage in Burbank, California, we continue our chat with the film’s star, Cerina Vincent, regarding the titular role, her long-standing working relationship with Monroe, the latest in her Hot Chick book series, and more. In addition we’re pleased to present the debut of the film’s poster. Co-executive produced by actress Vincent with Monroe and producers Anthony Fankhauser and Aaron Hofman, MoniKa co-stars Jason Wiles and C. Thomas Howell as well as Jeff Branson, Chad Lindberg and Andrew Howard (the three appeared in Monroe’s I Spit on Your Grave redux) and actors Lew Temple (The Devil’s Rejects), Shayla Beesley (Spreading Darkness), Raffaello Degruttola, Elisa Donovan and genre vet Tim Thomerson. (Click here for Part 1 of our coverage.) Sitting down with the affable actress in her trailer to discuss MoniKa (which she had wrapped the day prior), Vincent (whose previous forays into horror include her standout role in Cabin Fever as well as The Return to House on Haunted Hill, among others) said of MoniKa’s principal photography, “We’re having a blast! When Steven first sent me the script five years ago, the whole movie was to be shot in the middle of the desert, but then as he was location scouting, he started thinking about moving it to Vegas and said, ‘Don’t get too excited!’ I did get excited, though, because I’m from Vegas and I always thought it would be fun to shoot in my hometown. He ended up taking the story and moving it to the seedy kind of crack-whore part of Vegas, which was great for production value. Growing up in Vegas, let me say that there’s no reason to ever go to that part of town, but it looked great on film.” In addition to the Las Vegas location and the final days of photography that took place in Burbank, MoniKa filmed on location in a dry lake bed in Nevada, which came with its own particular set of challenges. “It was over 100 degrees and windy and dusty, and you’d just be hit in the face with all of it,” Vincent laughed, “with absolutely no shade at all. It was super, super bright, and Jason (Wiles) and I were doing a scene with six pages of dialogue, and by the time the end came, we could hardly get the words out because there was so much dust in our mouths, and my hair was blowing everywhere. The desert can be intense. But now, I know this may sound cheesy, I might cry, but everyone on this production was so great and is such a great team, and I feel like we really have a family. It makes such a difference because I’ve done movies where I felt, ‘Really? This is how this production is going to go?’ But it is so beautiful when everyone is a professional and everyone is happy to be at work. It’s a blessing.” For anyone who personally knows Vincent, three things more than likely will come to mind when her name is brought up: her intellectual depth and innate charm and, to our pop culture conscience, her striking brunette locks which have historically been part of her filmic je ne sais quoi. “Oh my god,” said the actress, recounting what led to her drastic change of hair color for MoniKa. “So I have a lot of hair and said to Steven, ‘I could put some highlights in,’ and Steven said, ‘No, I want you to be really blonde,’ and I was like, ‘Cool!’ I thought that he’d forget about it, and then he kept bringing it up so I went in to the production office with these pictures of girls (with different hair colors) and he picked the one that was a super pale bleached blonde, and I said, ‘Do you understand the process that this is going to take?’ And he said, ‘Yeah. And that’s what I want.’” Biting the proverbial bullet, Vincent took the photo to her hairstylist at Monroe’s request. The stylist refused, as did the next one she asked to make the color change. Vincent persevered, however, in delivering the look of her character which Monroe demanded. “This is like really ‘comic book blonde,’” Vincent mused, “and that’s an element to this film. It’s not comic-booky, but it could be, and so I think it really works for the character. Some of the footage where it’s dark and slow motion and I’m in the desert at night and I’m wearing a long, black leather coat shooting a shotgun and my hair is lit and flowing, the blonde looks really cool! But walking through a Ralphs now? I’m getting a lot of strange looks.” The conversation turned then to the general public’s perception of blondes and to Vincent’s interaction with the masses given her then flaxen tresses. “Yeah, people absolutely treat me differently now,” she replied. “They told me when I was leaving the salon that people would, and I didn’t give it much thought, but they do! When we were in Vegas shooting, I had the afternoon off one day, and so I went down to sit by the pool where we were staying, and the salon had told me not to get much sun on it because the color could get weird and brassy so I was trying to put it up in a hat and it was windy and the pages of my script were flying. There was this woman a few feet away who said mockingly to her husband, ‘Oh look at that girl. Oh, Oh! I’m an actress! Look at my blonde hair! Oh, Oh! My script! My script is flying away!’” “Look, I’m Italian, and something kicked in and I thought, ‘I can say something, or I can let that go.’ But I said, ‘Excuse me, I heard that.’ And she stood up and said, ‘Well, I meant for you to.’ And I was like, ‘I don’t know where to go with this next!’ If I’d been Monika, I would have shot her! I had two other girls try to pick fights with me as a bleached blonde, too. That has never happened in my entire life as brunette. Guys are weird, too.” Given the darkness of Monroe’s previous I Spit on Your Grave and the similar contextual revenge concept of MoniKa, we queried the actress as to the disturbing depths she may or may not have had to mine in bringing her character to the life. “I think that Steven is such a ‘whole’ person,” she offered of her director, whom she previously worked with on the 2005 film It Waits and the drama Complacent. “He’s a talented writer and director, and also a talented director with actors, but he’s also just a fabulous human being. Steven also knows the camera like no director I’ve ever worked with. So there is a trust there with him and I have great respect for him and I always feel so comfortable working with Steven. But I guess when you look at MoniKa as a whole, yes, there are some dark things going on. My character’s sister ends up getting killed over drug money, and she goes through some crazy scenes, but I don’t think I really had anything that dark to do. I had some wild sex scenes and I kill a lot of people, but in the end my character is really a guardian angel in an interesting sort of way. And there’s a bit of a love story going on, too – it’s not too dark at all.” As for how Vincent became involved as a co-executive producer on MoniKa, she stated, “Well, Steven gave me the script about seven years ago and we tried to make the film then. For one reason or another it never happened, but he sent it to me again at the beginning of 2011 and asked me if I was still interested. Obviously, I’m interested in anything Steven does because I think he’s incredible and also because it was a fabulous role for me. I was stoked to play a blonde stoic tomboy who’s good with a gun.” “So, some of the financiers were taking a while to commit, and I asked for a shot at trying to find funding for the film,” continued Vincent, who in addition to acting is also a screenwriter in her own right. “I sold my own script a few years back and it was almost made into a film so I already had a taste of what that ‘producer’ role was like. So I passed the MoniKa script on to some investors who are fans of mine and who love Steven’s work, and I was able to secure the first money in – which is usually the hardest. So, yes, that made me a co-executive producer, but honestly, I wasn’t really wearing any producer caps on the film. I really was just focusing on my target practice, bleaching my hair and being a believable badass!” Known most to Dread readers for her work in the genre, Vincent’s filmography is wide-reaching and includes turns in the television series “Two and a Half Men”, “CSI” and “Bones” as well as roles in the feature comedies Everybody Wants to Be Italian, Not Another Teen Movie and the upcoming Tag, in which she stars alongside Scout Taylor-Compton (Rob Zombie’s Halloween), Christopher Mintz-Plasse (Kick-Ass) and Kane Hodder. Her work outside of the realm of acting has been prolific as well, from her charitable endeavors with The Busted Foundation (which aids Los Angeles women battling breast cancer) to her co-authored trilogy of well-received books with Jodi Lipper, titled How to Eat Like a Hot Chick (2007), How to Love Like a Hot Chick (2009) and Live it Like a Hot Chick (2010) via HarperCollins Publishing. Of that series, “We are writing another book,” said Vincent. “They are empowering books for women and redefine the term ‘hot chick’, and they are silly, sexy and funny, but with sound ‘girlfriend to girlfriend’ advice. My co-author Jodi Lipper and I are working on our fourth book now. It’s a bit of a departure from the ‘Hot Chick’ series where we call out a lot of tabloid bullshit and negative stuff in the media that makes women hate themselves. We really go there. We talk about how radio ads for breast implants and liposuction are so bad for young girls. The fake reality TV stars that our youth are looking up to, filled with Botox and cat-fighting with other women on TV, it’s just all so out of control. Body dysmorphia and insecurities happen anyway, but we have whole networks that make a ton of money only airing shows with negative messages. We’re trying to encourage our readers to turn off the crappy TV and open their minds and hearts to things that nurture themselves instead.”

Jordan Ladd gets infected and gets her face chewed off by a dog!” Here is a look back at Cabin Fever’s Original Movie Trailer.

| Exclusive MoniKa Trailer and Stills | ||
Here is a batch of production stills, behind the scenes photos, as well as an exclusive trailer for the Cerina Vincent-starring revenge thriller. The release date has not been said yet but I will try to keep you updated on that. Read on! Said Steven Monroe of the film’s personality as it defines itself during the post-production process (the flick wrapped on July 26th, having shot on location in Vegas, Yucca Valley and the Big Picture Soundstage in Burbank, California), “At its heart it’s a good guy/girl versus the bad guys revenge tale in its truest form.” Regarding the aspects of the director’s own personality unique to MoniKa (Monroe has helmed a wide array of varying genre flicks from the hard edged I Spit on Your Grave to the pure man-in-a-suit old school creature flick It Waits, among others), the filmmaker offered, “I don’t think after the amount of films I have directed that there is any of my personality that has not come out at one time or another although I think the personality that in the past was not allowed to say ‘No, this is the right thing or the best thing for the film’ is certainly out this time, and for me ultimately that ends up being for the best of the film, when the filmmaker gets to do his job.” Monroe is aiming for picture lock by the end of the month with post completed by the end of September. Stay tuned to Dread for more on MoniKa including exclusive in-depth interviews from the set with stars Vincent, Wiles and Howell. Synopsis Thanks to all who have shared all the images. | ||
