Horror Movie Reviews Chats Up Twins



"What is the funniest thing that has happened on set? 
Sylvia: We had a very fun set filled with people who had a great sense of humor. One of my favorite moments was when we needed jizz for a scene for an actress to spit out of her mouth and our props master, Brad Shemko who we just love, came over with this cup of what looked very much like semen and told me that here’s the jizz and he’d been working all night on it. I laughed and asked if it was OK to go in her mouth. ‘It has to go in her mouth?’ ‘Yup.’ ‘Oh.’ Then he walked away with it. 
Jen: On DHIAT we set some fireworks off and when the park ranger showed up we blamed “a group on teenagers that ran off.” I still can’t believe that line worked. I’m so sorry for supporting a negative stereotype, teenagers of the world."

Bloody Disgustingly Good Chat with The Twisted Twins



"Jen and Sylvia Soska are the Canadian ladies behind Twisted Twins Productions. After the release of their first grindhouse-inspired feature, Dead Hooker in a Trunk, the twins went on to release American Mary, a critical darling of the indie horror scene last year. On top of their filmmaking careers, the Soska’s are dedicated advocates for the Canadian horror industry and they made an appearance at Rue Morgue’s “Festival Of Fear” over the weekend as part of the Vancouver Fan Expo.

Jen and Sylvia sat down to chat about their upcoming monster movie, their love for comic books, Sinister Cinema, and plenty more."

The wicked awesome folks at MEGATechNews cover the radness that is the Vancouver FAN Expo!! Check it out, boys and grrls AND they chat with us Twisted Twins. RADCORE.

http://www.megatechnews.com - The MEGATechNews team had a great time covering the 2013 Vancouver Fan Expo this past weekend. Although there were lots of big celebrities like Amanda Tapping, Michael Rooker, Michael Hogan and more, we decided to shine a light on some of the equally important things at the show like the comic artists (Kurtis Wiebe), voice actors (Michael Banyaer), and background actors (Peter Kent) that also make the experience unique. We also talk to two of the biggest fan clubs, the Ghostbusters of BC and the 501st Legion, to find out what their experience was at this year’s event plus tons of costumed fans of all sorts.

Auteur Appetizers by Adrian Syrja



"This drawing evolved from a simple sketch of an anonymous contortionist into a surrealist drawing of Vancouver actor/performer Tristan Risk pinning the heads Vancouver filmmakers Jen and Sylvia Soska with her spideresque fetish boots, preparing to consume them. Such is the state of my mind these days. Ha ha!"

Random Ass Part Two



"Confession. I prefer a lot of sequels to the originals. The Unforgiven II, Murmaider II: The Water God, Blade 2, Predator 2, Aliens. So, when I found out I could do another interview with The Twisted Twins, The Soska Sisters, The Terrible Twosome (I made that one up) I jumped, again, at the chance.

Only fitting to have a second interview with twins. However, I’ve never had any one make it to the second round. I’m going to have to get even weirder for this one. Or just make it longer. I’ll probably just make it a longer interview.

I did not prefer Bad Boys 2, but this shit just got real."

The Amazing Adventures of the Soska Twins


"Jen and Sylvia Picnic Shenanigans: This piece again features Jen Soska and Sylvia Soska. The image for this popped into my head shortly after the first piece. With this i used multiple stock images and put them together to create a sort of insane sunny day. I drew Jen and Sylvia myself but the other images are from stock PNG images. This was just thrown together for a laugh really..." -Discord C Bam Bam

The Last Will & Testament of Rosalind Leigh in Theatres this May!


May 9th as a part of the Raven Banner Entertainment & Cineplex presented Sinister Cinema, Rodrigo Gudiño's beautiful The Last Will and Testament of Rosalind Leigh will be playing in theatres across Canada. This was one of my favorite films that I had the pleasure of seeing on the festival circuit last year and it's easily one of the best horror films I've seen in the last few years.

The genre needs more original voices telling their own stories. I don't want to be greedy, but please share this, grab as many people as you can and see this in the theatre, prove that horror like this does have an audience in the theatres.



In case I was subtle in any way, this film is fucking awesome. Please share this photo on your wall and be a part of supporting this film.
