‘Silent Hill’ Actress Radha Mitchell Talks Theaters And Her New Film ‘Dreamkatcher’

I had the pleasure of sitting down with talented actress Radha Mitchell. Not only did she talk that iconic role in Silent Hill, but we also discussed her role in the soon to be released supernatural film Dreamkatcher in which she plays the role of Gail, a single father’s new girlfriend. Problems arise when a dark entity sets its sights on Gail and her boyfriend’s young son who are left alone at a secluded cabin, the same one where the boy’s mother was murdered. Radha has starred in many great movies during her career, including the creepy as hell movie Silent Hill, the fantastic 2010 remake of The Crazies, The Darkness in which she starred opposite Kevin Bacon, and 2004’s Man on Fire. Horror Fuel: “Silent Hill is a great movie and it was something we hadn’t seen before. You’ve been in so many great films, Silent Hill, The Crazies. You always seem to play a motherly type role.” Radha

Watch The Trailer For The Drug-Fueled Indie Horror ‘Habitual’

We’ve got the new trailer for writer-director Johnny Hickey’s (Oxy Morons) new drug-fueled indie horror film, Habitual. In the film starring Chris ‘CT’ Tamburello (MTV’s The Challenge) and Thomas Walton (Room 9) after sniffing drugs and going to a rave being held at an abandoned asylum, a group of young adults is stalked by a relentless, malevolent presence, and their grasp on reality is torn limb from limb. A few years back, Boston-bred filmmaker Johnny Hickey brought the OxyContin epidemic to America’s attention with Oxy Morons. Based on his life, trials, and near-death experiences in the nascent throes of the opioid crisis, the film was a gut-wrenching wakeup call to anybody who at that point hadn’t come to understand the dangers of prescription painkillers. For his second feature film, Habitual, which is planned for release this coming fall, Hickey kept the theme in his macabre wheelhouse but also dove much deeper into horror territory in order to capture the nightmare
