I believe this role will launch her into a household name.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n O\u2019Connell shares some additional details, <\/span>\u201cWe just locked picture and we are working on post now. \u00a0I do believe it will be one of the most anticipated sequels in our decade. 40 years in the making, written & directed by Meir Zarchi to the original 1978 “SPIT” film. It’s been a labor of love from everyone who worked on the film, including Jamie Bernadette.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n Sinbad and the War of the Furies<\/em><\/span> Jamie previously starred in a couple comedies by The Asylum that were directed by Scott Wheeler.\u00a0\u00a0Sinbad and the War of the Furies<\/em>\u00a0will be her first action adventure film by the Asylum and again directed by Wheeler as he talks about Jamie in his films, <\/span>\u201cJamie has consistently been one of the most dependable, talented and fun people I have had the pleasure of working with<\/span><\/i>. \u00a0<\/span>Her instincts, whether it be Comedy or Drama are always on the mark. \u00a0Add to that her professionalism, beauty, easy going spirit and you have an actor I know will go far.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n Sinbad and the War of the Furies<\/em>\u00a0was written by Scotty Mullen and in addition to writing screenplays he has a vast experience as a Casting Director. \u00a0Jamie\u2019s performance impressed Mullen and he will surely be seeking her out to cast in future films, \u201c<\/span>I recently cast Jamie in the film Sinbad and the War of the Furies<\/em>, which I also wrote. Jamie is an intelligent actress whose charming personality and daring choices help her bring roles to life and make them uniquely her own.

Juggling three jobs on set was a ton of responsibility and the hardest thing I\u2019ve ever done, but when I\u2019m acting, I\u2019m acting. Of course it helped that I\u2019d also co-written the script!\u201d<\/i>\u00a0Jamie told Ian White of Movie Ramblings.<\/span><\/p>\n All Girls Weekend<\/em> Filmmaker Lou Simon\u2019s latest horror, thriller, action, and drama film\u00a0All Girls Weekend<\/em>\u00a0 is currently available and absolutely worth seeing. \u00a0The film is an all-female cast starring Jamie, Katie Carpenter, Gema Calero, Karishma Lakhani, and Sharron Calvin. \u00a0The film is much more than a girls\u2019 in the woods horror. \u00a0There\u2019s no killer or monster lurking in the woods. \u00a0It\u2019s a survival horror film with a supernatural twist with a powerful message from Mother Nature. <\/span><\/p>\n \u201c<\/span>It\u2019s an all-female cast, a homage to one of my favorite horror films The Descent<\/span><\/i>, says Simon.\u00a0 Having Jamie as one of the stars was not the only benefit to Simon as she shares, \u201c<\/span>Jamie is the ultimate professional. \u00a0She was so easy to work with on All Girls Weekend, and she has been so great about helping promote the film afterwards. \u00a0Despite the fact that her career is really taking off, she has no ego and that is so rare to find in this industry. \u00a0I hope to work with her again one day, because she’s so incredibly talented and really one of the nicest people I’ve met in the business.”<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n State of Desolation<\/em> Jamie plays the pampered suburban girl Claire and shares about her character, \u201c<\/span>Claire is a spoiled suburbanite, but she reveals some surprises in the film and we find out that her life isn’t as “perfect” as what it first appears. \u00a0She changes so quickly under the dire circumstances, becoming mentally and physically stronger throughout the film. She learns how to truly listen and care about other people, and, for the first time in her life, she lets go of all of the surface manifestations she has worn, letting us see her for who she really is. \u00a0She learns how to love, and be loved in return. We see her at her weakest moments and the strongest moments of her life during this apocalypse.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Bone Box<\/em> Depressed and reeling from the recent death of his wife, Tom has built up quite a gambling debt. He goes to stay with his wealthy Aunt Florence in hopes that she will write him into her will. When a nasty creditor makes it clear that Tom is out of time, he devises a plan with Elodie, the undertaker’s daughter, to rob the graves of the rich townspeople buried in the cemetery across the road. After plundering the graves, Tom arrives back at Florence’s house and events take a dark turn. Tom begins hearing and seeing strange things that seem to coincide with the deaths of the people he robbed. Even more disconcerting… he appears to be the only one sensing the occurrences. One question lingers: Is Tom’s conscience playing a trick on him… or is he really being haunted by those he stole from?<\/span><\/p>\n Writer, Director, and Producer of\u00a0The Bone Box<\/em> Luke Genton appreciates Jamie\u2019s ability to play a tough role when yet in reality she\u2019s a genuinely nice person as he tells, \u201c<\/span>Jamie is very relaxed and friendly in person, but she believably embodies a tough and intimidating cop in my film The Bone Box. She has quite a presence on screen.”<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n Actress Maria Olsen has starred and appeared in endless films and TV including big budget, national commercials, and independent films. \u00a0She has worked with Jamie on multiple films including I Spit On Your Grave: D\u00e9j\u00e0 Vu, Bunnyman Massacre, State of Desolation<\/em>, and The Bone Box<\/em>. \u00a0<\/span>\u201cJamie is one of the most talented and dedicated actresses I’ve ever worked with,\u201d <\/span><\/i>tells Olsen<\/span>. \u201cThere is nothing she won’t do for her craft, and she deserves to be recognized for this.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n Jamie plays the role of a sassy assistant to football star Bobby Davis played by Shannon Brown (The Crash<\/em>, Midnight Rain<\/em>).
