123

Kane Hodder has starred in Friday the 13th Part VII, VIII, Jason Goes to Hell and Jason X. He is also well known for his role as Victor Crowley in the Hatchet film series, amongst countless other films. Kane is the true definition of dichotomy: he is possibly the most beloved horror icon in the film industry, as well as with his millions of fans.

In the following conversation, Kane and I discuss his work with children in burn victim units, his love of the comedy show Impractical Jokers and have “Q” as one of the stars in Victor Crowley, horror kill scenes, his Casualty Friday podcast (with Felissa Rose & Tifanny Shepis on Fangoria), and more.

The following interview was conducted on 10/13/19 at the Rock & Shock Convention in Worcester, MA.
