ROUGH JUSTICE
HAS THE GORE BEEN RAMPED UP EVEN FURTHER THIS SEASON?
Oscar Kennedy (Jamie): Tenfold. It’s really been ramped up for sure. Episode one, straight out the gate. It’s pretty full on.
Peter Claffey (Cormac): It’s gory like you wouldn’t believe. And this is the thing: I’m so proud to have been a part of series one and the gore was great, but I wouldn’t be too squeamish, and there were only certain aspects that really made me jump. This series has moved up a level, big time. There’s a lot more stunt aspects and an awful lot more gruesome killings. It’s much more brutal.
Phill Martin (the Creep): I’m a horror lover, and yeah there are some nice gory gags. There’s a character from the first series who gets into a bit of a fight with the Creep. That really was one of the standout moments. Every time the Creep gets a little face-off with someone or meets one of our favourite characters from the original… yeah, I’ve appreciated all the moments like that!
Oscar Kennedy: One of my favourites was a parasol between some heads, which was pretty good.
Thaddea Graham: I liked that one. I also liked… There’s some really gory, kind of burning shit that goes on, one of those things you want to look away from. You’re like, “I can’t stop watching, I don’t want to watch but it’s so fascinating.” They did a lot of practical effects on that, but they’re also going to add in VFX. It’s going to be really cool to see, the combination of the practical and the technological.
Warren James Dunning (Officer
Beaker): There’s more jeopardy in series two. We’ve gone bigger, badder, and bloodier. I saw the first one as Alien; it’s on this little craft, and the second one is on the planet. This time it’s wide, it’s kinda blown wide open. Everyone’s game. They’re fighting for their lives.
