I listen to quite a bit of “online radio” regarding the horror genre (I will bypass any shameless plug) and I have heard some interesting “behind the scenes” talk regarding the mentioned and was curious if anyone has heard anything, or care to find out.
The first thing I am curious about is...
“is Sylvester Stallone’s cousin or other family member in the film?”
I heard that this was a definite, but who knows. I guess we all know that Stallone’s kid is in “Chaos”, but I was curious to the other.
The next question is regarding the lead (Gary Kohn) in the film who played Christopher. I hear that he was not the original lead. I understand that it was a guy with a shaved head out of Vegas named Laurence Boucher, who had worked on a couple projects for director Ron Atkins.
So without getting into the “who knows who” part of this, I heard clearly that Laurence was “better dealt” by Gary if you will, due to being a more recognized name (sucks, but that‘s Hollywood).
I hear also, that Lindsey Morris (played the wh**e/prostitute/ in the film) may have had something to do with it. She did not like the first lead and since she worked with Gary on “Almost famous, she had some influence in getting rid of the first lead.
So, I checked it out. I did an IMDB search on Laurence Boucher and found nothing, though I heard this guy was in “Eye of the Chameleon” and sure enough, he is in the list of credits, though nothing on IMDB???
I heard last year he did another film as the lead for director Ron Atkins’ and too boot, I heard he replaced Roger Michael Watkins (The Last House On dead End Street). It feels weird even writing this, since Roger as we are aware passed away earlier this month, but I would be VERY interested if you could help find out if that is true or not.
I tried getting right to the source and sent an e-mail to Ron‘s website, but I heard nothing back.
Your interest in the above would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
S. Grace
