About the Job

This role is for the film's antagonist. She has two scenes: one in a diner, and one in her apartment. This role is very challenging because she's essentially playing two characters. In the diner scene, she's a seductress — but with an underlying strangeness (think Lynch, or more like After Hours) in the topics of conversation and her cadence. In the apartment scene, she's someone possessed by a powerful demon, and she tries to kill him. Much of this film's horror hinges on the success of this final scene.
