Working with Dario Argento was a lot of fun. He's a larger-than-life character, and with an Italian accent.

During the rehearsal process I got thrown off the horse.

I remember they did all the makeup tests on me for Darla... Sorry, for the vampire. I was the test monkey for the vampire look, so I went through numerous variations of the prosthetics and camera tests before I actually got the job.

There were a couple of years where I was skating and acting at the same time.

I love doing action films that do challenge me physically. I feel it's my job to keep my stamina up and be as physically fit as possible, so that I can just jump in and do it. It takes its toll sometimes and it's hard work, but I love that.

It was fun to play that surreal high school life in Jawbreaker. I was a huge fan of the movie Heathers. But I think at the time -- you know, when the movie was released, it was a very limited release, and it didn't do very well at the box office. And I love the fact that it has found legs and that the audience has kept growing and growing over the years.

I loved everything about that movie Jawbreaker. The fashion, the friendship amongst all of us girls... it was great. We had a blast filming it, and it was really wonderful. It was a very special time.

But I never worked with a northern horse before. They are very different from western horses.

I didn't really know who Dario Argento was at the time. I know him now, obviously. But I went in to be an extra on the movie Two Evil Eyes, and he saw me sitting out waiting to meet the casting director, and he pulled my mother and I into a separate conference room.

I actually started, this year, doing some voiceovers. I did some radio spots, and some games.

When I first started I was always known as The Girl on the Sitcom with the Funny Voice.

The great thing about working on a genre show is that you can basically have a season finale where every character is left destroyed, and then hit the reset button and come back for the next season.

I love the fans of genre. Genre fans are the best fans. They're loyal, they're dedicated, and they're passionate about the projects. They get it on a cerebral level. Being a part of that culture and that world... It's very gratifying and very fulfilling.

You don't realize how much a part of your character is part of yourself until you are no longer playing that character.

And I'm not very coordinated, either. Only on ice skates, not in real life.

I would love to re-visit Darla. I miss her. I really do.

I'm fortunate that I've been an athlete, my whole life, and I work out like a crazy person.

Everyone else trains just as hard as well and that there really is no such a thing as overnight success.

Oh, well, in Los Angeles everybody is an actor, or a producer, or a writer, or a director, or an agent, or... So everybody understands the hours.

You really have to work hard and apply yourself and by applying yourself and working hard and being diligent, you can achieve success.
