With featured roles in Brian De Palma’s Carrie, John Carpenter’s Halloween, Allan Arkush’s Rock ‘n’ Roll High School (featuring The Ramones), and Rob Zombie’s The Devil’s Rejects, P.J. Soles has appeared in some of the most iconic cult/horror films of all time.
She’s also an accomplished comedic actress, appearing in more mainstream fare such as Ivan Reitman’s Stripes and Howard Zieff’s Private Benjamin. (Okay, maybe Stripes and Private Benjamin aren’t the genre movies Dread Central usually covers, but I think we remember them as well – especially P.J. displaying her comedy chops with Bill Murray).
Ms. Soles sat down with writer and horror fiend Heather Buckley for a lively interview about her acting career (which spans over 30 years, including television), her current musical endeavors, and one actor’s insights into the differences between being directed by master of the macabre John Carpenter and suspense maestro Brian De Palma.
