English: One of the many great films to premiere at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival was Freaks. Written and directed by Adam Stein and Zach Lipovsky, Freaks is a science-fiction thriller about a disturbed father (Emile Hirsch) that locks his 7-year-old daughter (Lexy Kolker) in their house, warning her of grave dangers outside. But a mysterious stranger (Bruce Dern) convinces the girl to escape and join him on a quest for family, freedom, and revenge. I’d love to go into more details about the plot, but the less you know about the twists and turns the better. Freaks also stars Grace Park and Aleks Paunovic. Shortly after seeing the film, Aleks Paunovic, Amanda Crew, Lexy Kolker and directors Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein came into the Collider studio at TIFF to talk about the film. During the wide-ranging interview they talked about the difficulty of promoting Freaks while also trying not to spoil the film, the challenges of making a movie like this with such a limited budget, how Lipovsky and Stein first met on a reality show, what it was like for the actors working with two directors, memorable moments from filming, and more.
