Adrienne Barbeau Set for Special Conversation and Screening This February
Legendary actress, singer, and author Adrienne Barbeau is set to headline a special conversation about her career at the upcoming HollyShorts monthly screening series on Wednesday, February 28 at 7 PM at the TCL Chinese Theater. Moderated by Yulissa Morales-Silva, Vice President of U.S. Distribution at Epic Pictures (parent company to Dread Central), the evening will also be a showcase of two horror short films, both starring Barbeau: Alice Jacobs Is Dead, directed by Alex Horowitz, and Oddities, directed by Tyler Savage.
Alice Jacobs Is Dead stars John La Zar and Adrienne Barbeau. It follows a scientist racing to find the cure to a horrific virus before it turns his wife into something monstrous.
Oddities stars Adrienne Barbeau, Ariela Barer, and Logan Miller. It follows a drugged-out duo’s attempt to rob an antique store and their realization that the older woman running the shop isn’t as defenseless as she seems.
The evening will also feature a variety of additional short films as part of the HollyShorts program.
Tickets to the event are available here.
Legendary actress, singer, and the author of five books, Adrienne Barbeau is a horror icon, starring in genre classics such as John Carpenter’s The Fog and Escape From New York, George Romero’s Creepshow, and Wes Craven’s Swamp Thing.
Currently, Barbeau can be seen in the aforementioned shorts, as well as the upcoming Demon Detective. She’s also the voice of “The Overseer” in the video game Fallout 76, “Hera” in God Of War, “Dr. Tilson” in Halo 4, and “Betty Howser” in Starfield.
She’s also currently adapting her novel Love Bites into a series.
