Producers
say the Princess of punk is a perfect fit for story of a ghost that has
reanimated a rotting corpse and roams the streets of Las Vegas.
As
if its cast wasn't hot enough, "Haunting Kira" broke the news
Thursday night on Twitter that Joanna Angel will be joining the independent
horror film's roster.
As
the head of her own adult production company (Burning Angel Entertainment),
Joanna Angel has directed more than 20 films and appeared in over 60.
The
award-winning pioneer and princess of punk porn joins the likes of Rachel Grubb
("Strip Club Slasher"), Kathleen Kinmont ("Bride of
Re-Animator"), Monique Dupree ("Skeleton Key 2") and Donna Hamblin
("Killer Biker Chicks") in the project that was written and will be
directed by special effects artist Teresa Fahs of Gorify.com fame. Also on
board is Ari Lehman, who is best known as the first actor to play Jason
Voorhees in the "Friday the 13th" franchise.
"Haunting
Kira," which prides itself as a “Women in Horror” production, tells the
story of a ghost that has reanimated a rotting corpse and roams the streets of
Las Vegas.
"Could
we do a Sin City zombie film without at least one porn star?" producer
Chad Clinton Freeman jokingly asks. "Seriously though, Joanna Angel is a
perfect fit for our film. 'Haunting Kira' is an exploration into diversity,
individuality and identity and she's an entrepreneur that got where she is by
doing things her own way."
Joanna
will play a character named Cindy Sinn, who seduces another female character in
the stall of a bar bathroom.
"As
those who know my art work can attest, I'm committed to realism," Fahs
said. "So when it came to casting the right actress for our hot
girl-on-girl sex scene, Joanna was the natural choice. I'm delighted to be
working on this project with yet another free-thinking, gutsy woman that I
genuinely respect."
Specializing
in parody, alt and horror, Joanna's film credits include "Porny Monster,"
"Repenetrator," "The XXXorcist," "Joanna's
Angels," "Punk Rock Pussycat Dolls" and "L.A. Pink."
The
Rutgers University graduate, who has called the Suicide Girls "the
McDonald's of alt porn," most recently appeared in Sean Cain's indie
horror film "Breath of Hate."
The
F-Team (Fahs and Freeman) released news of Joanna joining their cast via their
Twitter accounts and the film's website (www.hauntingkira.com).
