Felicia Mancini Interviews Author & Horror Icon, Barbie Wilde

Horror icon Barbie Wilde may be best known as the Female Cenobite in Clive Barker’s classic cult film Hellbound: Hellraiser II but this Canadian born multi-dimensional artist has performed in cabaret in Bangkok, Thailand, robotically danced in the Bollywood blockbuster, Janbazz, played a vicious mugger in the vigilante thriller Death Wish 3 and appeared as a drummer for an electronica band in the so-called “Holy Grail of unfinished and unreleased 80’s horror” Grizzly II: The Predator, a.k.a, Grizzly II: The Concert, with a then unknown George Clooney. She was a founder member of the mime/dance/music group, SHOCK, that toured alongside the likes of Depeche Mode. As a journalist, Barbie has interviewed Iggy Pop, John Lydon (AKA the Sex Pistol’s Johnny Rotten),Nicolas Cage and Hugh Grant. In 2009, Barbie contributed a well-received short story, entitled ‘Sister Cilice’, to the Hellbound Hearts Anthology. The stories in Hellbound Hearts were based on Clive Barker’s mythology from his novella The Hellbound Heart, the basis for the Hellraiser film franchise.
