Scream queen Danielle Harris spoke with Mr. Skin about her successful career in horror and her one-and-only nude scene for Rob Zombie’s Halloween remake. The interview is a must-read for fans of Harris and for those hoping to see her get nekid in the movies again.

She says:

It wasn’t gratuitous. If it had been gratuitous I wouldn’t have done it. And I trusted [Rob Zombie]. I’m pretty confident anyway, and I’m not really inhibited, so for me it didn’t bother me at all.

It bothered me more that people kept wanting to talk about it after, you know like fans, that’s when it became weird, the realization that it’s not just Rob Zombie and the people on set that saw you naked, but it’s millions of people that saw you naked. That was a little bit like “Oh my god.”

So, there you have it. Stop creeping the girl out. Don’t ask her to autograph your screen capture of her nude boobs with a personalized message like “let’s go motor-boating” or “wish you were here.”

Harris got her start in horror at the age of 11 in Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers and returned to the franchise nine years later in Rob Zombie’s Halloween. She also starred in Zombie’s Halloween 2 and in Adam Green’s popular Hatchet series.

Harris makes her directorial debut with Among Friends, out on DVD and VOD Aug. 27.
