Bone Lake Interview: Would You Stay in a Double-Booked Airbnb?
9Writer-director Mercedes Bryce Morgan (Fixation) returned to Fantastic Fest this year with her third feature film, Bone Lake. The horror-comedy reunites Morgan with actress Maddie Hasson (Malignant) for an exploration of the lighter side of the genre than their previous collaboration, Fixation, and co-stars Alex Roe (Siren), Andra Nechita (Fatal Attraction), and Marco Pigossi (Gen V). To celebrate their World Premiere at the festival, Nechita and Pigossi joined their director in Austin, Texas, where our own Perri Nemiroff was able to chat with them about what audiences can expect from Bone Lake.
On a move across the country, one couple, Sage (Hasson) and Diego (Pigossi), rent a sprawling lakeside home in the hopes of reconnecting with each other. It's been a trying year, but a relaxing, intimate getaway sounds like just the ticket. What should be a dream vacation, however, quickly devolves into a nightmare when they realize the house is double booked. When they tentatively agree to share the space with the new couple, Cin (Nechita) and Will (Roe), things get really weird and deadly fast.
While at the festival, Morgan, Nechita, and Pigossi sat down with Nemiroff to give us an idea of what it's actually like on the set of a blood and guts-heavy horror movie. From a well-versed genre director and self-proclaimed "cute goth kid" and two genre newbies, we learn the ins and outs of character dynamics and development, filming on a tight schedule, and the importance of a cast's on-set relationships.
