For someone who doesn’t like watching horror movies, Gillian Jacobs sure is in a lot of them! In fact, in just one year she’s adding four horror titles to the filmography. There’s Come Play which dropped back in October of 2020 and now she's got the three Fear Street movies hitting Netflix.
Leigh Janiak’s Fear Street trilogy puts the focus on the rivalry between the towns of Shadyside and Sunnyvale. Sunnyvalers are living the good life in a town of prosperity and zero crime. Meanwhile, just 30 minutes away, the Shadysiders seem doomed in every sense, especially when you factor in the town’s history of birthing serial killers.
In celebration of the launch of the first Fear Street film, Fear Street 1994, I got the chance to chat with Jacobs and co-star Darrell Britt-Gibson and it turned out to be a very special moment for Britt-Gibson. This is when he first got to learn about the horror delight that is Bad Milo.
Watch that go down and hear all about the stellar list of directors Britt-Gibson has worked with over the years in this interview!
