Jade Pettyjohn and Marcus Dunstan audio interview for #AMFD: All my friends are dead
"In #AMFAD: All My Friends Are Dead, a group of college friends rent an Airbnb for the biggest music festival of the year. A weekend of partying quickly takes a turn for the worse as the group is murdered one by one, according to their sin," the synopsis reads.
Tyler Treese: Jade, #AMFAD is such a fun movie. It has such a great atmosphere. So what was the big selling point to get you on board?
Jade Pettyjohn: There were a couple of things. I’m a huge Marcus fan, so the idea of working with him was really incredible. So that was one of the first things that attracted me. But I also love the kind of horror movies that are as shocking and gory as they are funny. I think using humor to disarm an audience of shock and gore is actually really fun. So when I read the script, I thought, This candy-coated horror movie is really incredible.
