![]() ![]() We just talked on the phone the other day for what might have been like an hour and a half. It was just like we had known each other forever. She is great you know when you just connect with someone right away? That’s what it was like for us the first day on set together. What was it like working with Camille? Did she give you any tips? Terry and I can get on the phone and talk for an hour easily, so yeah, they’re wonderful, wonderful people and they are very respectful and kind. He’s now like my family, I’ve been over there for thanksgiving and we’ve become very close. ![]() He definitely knew what he wanted, but he’s the kindest, sweetest soul. He definitely had a vision for this film for I think a long, long time. He was great, you know he’s a lot of fun and very encouraging. What was what was Meir like as a director? But besides that, it was a great, great shoot. I think a lot of us know someone who’s been raped, unfortunately. That week was tough emotionally for people. So that was hard for some of the people on set, more so than myself. I know I had a couple people come in to me on set saying they had been raped or they know someone who had been raped and crying. I think we became like a family and the week of the rape was trying on people. Yeah, I think it was about a 30 to 31-day shoot, but it was fantastic. What was the life like on the set? We spoke to Terry Zarchi and he said it was quite a long shoot. It was shock, relief, and joy and a lot of emotion for sure – but I was thrilled. I had sent in a tape and then I had a first audition in person with the director Meir and Terry and then I had the five-hour third audition where I read with a bunch of other actors, and I wasn’t told I got the part until a couple months after that. I was going back and forth with Terry, the producer, for a few months – it was quite a long audition process. So what was your first reaction when you got the part in the sequel? And nowadays that’s the part people love. So it seems like that’s the part that some people were offended by, which is interesting. So I think seeing a powerful woman on screen wasn’t taken well. I think we’ve come a long way with women nowadays compared to the ‘70s, for sure. Yes, I know the video was banned, I don’t think just in the UK, I think quite a few places if not everywhere at first. Were you aware of the controversy about the film? If people didn’t know better, I would think it was like a reality video. I couldn’t believe they were making a sequel, I thought the 1978 original was phenomenal, very real and raw, it just feels like it’s really happening. And when I saw the sequel, I was like, ‘Oh my gosh, I would love to do that’. I had watched it maybe a year before I saw the casting notice for the sequel, so I was definitely aware of it. STARBURST: Were you aware of the first film before you got the part? Ahead of the release of the I Spit on Your Grave 6-disc box set, which includes the original film, the reboot trilogy, the official sequel, Déjà Vu, as well as a new documentary, Growing Up With I Spit on Your Grave, we caught up with Jamie Bernadette, who stars the sequel. ![]()
