Jessica reveals than when her director first talked to her about the bloody scene, she had to convince him to pour it on thick.
“He said, ‘It’s only going to go up to your chest’, and I said, ‘This is our opportunity to really make something crazy – let’s do (horror movie) Carrie on steroids!’ so I fully went in the blood (sic), which I regretted a lot afterwards. I was pulling stuff out of my eyeballs for the next day.”
