AVATAR's Joel Moore gets the chills with Kane Hodder from FRIDAY THE 13TH

January 19, 2011 (PRLEAP.COM) Entertainment News
CHILLERAMA also introduces hilarious German actor Florian Klein. The movie is an upcoming comedy horror anthology film consisting of four stories that take place at a dusk 'till dawn monster movie marathon in an old school drive-in in Southern California. Each one of the segments pays homage to a different genre and style. Filming took place in late 2010. A worldwide release is scheduled for Summer 2011.

Adam Green (FROZEN, HATCHET) contributes THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANKENSTEIN, which combines the story of Anne Frank and a Jewish Frankenstein's monster (Hodder) – in the most politically incorrect way.

Green pre-premiered ANNE at last year's FrightFest in London. Despite the controversial subject, it was laughs all around the theatre, as joke after joke came with expert timing. Joel Moore plays Adolf Hitler. As the movie's in German and Moore doesn't know the language, he makes up his own gibberish, but his subtitles are correct.

Perfect German came from the only real German on the set, Florian Klein, appearing as goofy Nazi soldier Rupert, who provides some of the funniest moments. Florian recently worked with an antique almost as old as Frankenstein's monster itself: Joan Rivers. He's both on her award-winning documentary JOAN RIVERS: A PIECE OF WORK and her upcoming WE show JOAN KNOWS BEST? "I know it almost screams for a bad joke about Joan, but that would be plain wrong," Florian says. "It was just amazing working with a legend like her. Plus Kane (Hodder) is a lot taller!"

Florian, who's acted in Germany and the U.S., said it was kind of "uncomfortable" wearing a Nazi uniform. "But if you're a German in Hollywood, you get typecast a lot. Well, as long as it pays the bills," he smiles.

Production on CHILLERAMA is almost complete and no more information will be leaked until its release. JOAN KNOWS BEST? premieres on the WE channel on January 25th. Also catch Florian Klein in another Nazi role alongside Michael Madsen in HIRED GUN.
