Opening in theaters on February 1st is the new horror thriller The Haunting in Connecticut 2: Ghosts of Georgia, which is a companion piece to '2009s The Haunting in Connecticut and is based on true events. The film was directed by longtime editor Tom Elkins (The Apparition), and features an excellent cast that includes Chad Michael Murray (House of Wax), Katee Sackhoff (TV's Battlestar Galactica), Abigail Spencer (Cowboys & Aliens), Cicely Tyson (The Help), and young actress Emily Alyn Lind (Movie 43).    

IAR's Managing Editor Jami Philbrick recently had a chance to sit down with both Katee Sackhoff and Emily Alyn Lind to talk about their work on The Haunting in Connecticut 2: Ghosts of Georgia. The two actresses discussed the new film, their research into the real life events it is based on, working with director Tom Elkins, if Lind was ever scared on set, the "real spirits" that haunted the set, how the cast kept the atmosphere light on set, their favorite ghost movies, and why Sackhoff wanted to make a horror film for the first time.

Synopsis: When Andy Wyrick moves his wife Lisa and daughter Heidi to an historic home in Georgia, they quickly discover they are not the house’s only inhabitants. Joined by Lisa’s free-spirited sister, Joyce, the family soon comes face-to-face with a bone-chilling mystery born of a deranged desire… a haunting secret rising from underground and threatening to bring down anyone in its path.

Scheduled to open in theaters on September 6th is Riddick, which was written/directed by David Twohy (A Perfect Getaway) and stars Vin Diesel (Fast Five) in the title role. The film marks the third installment in the popular sic-fi series following Pitch Black and The Chronicles of Riddick, respectively. In addition to the return of Diesel, the movie also stars series newcomers Karl Urban (Dredd), Katee Sackhoff (TV's Battlestar Galactica), David Batista (The Man with the Iron Fists), and Bokeem Woodbine (Total Recall).

IAR's Managing Editor Jami Philbrick recently had the pleasure of sitting down with actresses Katee Sackhoff and Emily Alyn Lind to discuss their work on The Haunting in Connecticut 2: Ghosts of Georgia, which opens in theaters on February 1st. Philbrick also had a chance to ask Sackhoff about her role in the upcoming Riddick, as well as her thoughts on the legacy of Battlestar Galactica. While we will run our conversation with the actresses about The Haunting in Connecticut 2: Ghosts of Georgia closer to the film's release date, we wanted to let you know now what Sackhoff had to say about Riddick and Battlestar Galactica. The fan-favorite actress discussed Riddick, her role, working with writer/director David Twohy and star Vin Diesel, being the only actress on set surrounded by men, possibly having a fight scene with Diesel, shooting guns, Battlestar Galactica, and if she ever gets sick of fans calling her "Starbuck."
