A Recollection with Anya Liffey and Alan Orsmby

A Recollection with Anya Liffey and Alan Orsmby (2017)

*** 1/2 (out of 4)

Actress Anya Liffey and screenwriter/make-up artist Alan Orsmby are on hand for this twenty-minute featurette that takes a look at their working relationship with the late Bob Clark. Both start off talking about how they met Clark and how the film CHILDREN SHOULDN'T PLAY WITH DEAD THINGS got off the ground. We get some terrific stories about its production and how that led to DEATHDREAM. Orsmby really goes into detail on what he wanted to do with the screenplay as well as talking about the final film. Finally there's some talk about what led to DERANGED and its making. If you're a fan of any of the films I've mentioned then you'll certainly want to check this out. It's hard to believe that Orsmby hasn't been interviewed more since he certainly has a place in the early 70's horror films. This featurette is certainly a lot of fun and makes you appreciate what they did with these movies even more.
