| Sarah Michelle Gellar with Summer costar Jennifer Love Hewitt YM magazine: Be honest. Do you dig horror flicks like this one? SMG: Absolutely. There's nothing like the adrenaline rush you get. You know it's fake, that nothing really bad is actually gonna happen, but it's still scary and fun. It's kind of like a roller coaster ride. YM:The psycho dude in this flick is a fishermen. Do you have a case of fishermen-phobia now? SMG:Oh yeah you do start having terrifying thoughts. Love (costar and former YM cover girl Jennifer Love Hewitt) and I kept getting totally freked out because in North Carolina there were fishermen everywhere. YM:Speaking of Jennifer, got any tales of back-stabing competitiveness between you two angels? SMG:Naw, we sort of had our own things going in the flick. Our characters got equal time. And when you're isolated in North Carolina, you don't feel competitve, you feel close; you have this shared will to survive. YM:So who was your best bud on the set? SMG:We'd all kind of hang out. But I became really close with Freddie Prinze, Jr. I stil have this funy picture of him in the tiara I had to wear in the movie. YM:You don't seem like a tiara kind of girl. SMG:I'm not! I hated that thing. YM:Did you know any of the cast before you got to SouthPort? SMG: I already knew Ryan Phillipe from the soap days-he used to be on one life to live ( as Billy Douglas). He's such an amazing actor that there were times we'd be filiming and i'd forget my lines because i'd be so distracted by what he was saying. YM:You'r used to lots of punching and kicking on Buffy, but this flick had some serious action. Did you get hurt? SMG:I'm not notorious for getting injured, but it doesn't really faze me. I could have a bruise the size on Montana and go,"Oh, you know. Whatever."For love, getting beaten up during film was more of a surprise. She'd say,"Look at this bruise on my arm!" YM:What did a workaholic like you find to do during your downtime in North Carolina? SMG (laughing): I got so bored that I picked up frame-making. YM:You mean you made picture frames? SMG:Hey-I had to do something! |
