Screamfest 2007.Michael Berryman, star of Wes Craven's original The Hills Have Eyes. Crammed between the wall and the now grown-up kid from Child's Play, he was friendly and chatty.
He told us that he'd been fucked out of a role in the sequel-to-the-remake, The Hills Have Eyes 2. He'd flown to L.A. on his own dime to discover that the director was "busy" and couldn't make his scheduled meeting. Despite enthusiastic comments from Craven (now a producer on the sequel/remake) and producer Peter Locke, he only later found out he hadn't been cast from a secretary. Over the phone.
It's hard out here for an icon, that's for sure. Hollywood is a cruel place.
