Exclusive Interview – Freya Allan on Baghead and working in the horror genre

January 27, 2024 by EJ Moreno

EJ Moreno sits down with actress Freya Allan…

With the newly released Baghead, The Witcher actress Freya Allan enters the horror genre proper.

Allan joins us for a conversation focusing on horror as we look at what she enjoyed growing up and what it’s like working on a horror film set.

With Baghead just now entering cinemas in the U.K. and Ireland, it’s the perfect time to see what Freya Allan and the crew have been brewing in the scares department.

Check out the interview below, and be sure to follow us on YouTube for more reviews, exclusive interviews, and other video content…

Following the death of her estranged father, Iris (Freya Allan) learns she has inherited a run-down, centuries-old pub and becomes inextricably tied to an unspeakable entity that resides in the pub’s basement – Baghead – a shape-shifting creature that can transform into the dead. Two thousand in cash for two minutes with the creature is all it takes for desperate loved ones to ease their grief. Neil (Jeremy Irvine), who has lost his wife, is Iris’ first customer. Like her father, Iris is tempted to exploit the creature’s powers and help desperate people for a price. But she soon discovers breaking the two-minute rule can have terrifying consequences. Together with her best friend Katie (Ruby Barker), Iris must battle to keep control of Baghead and figure out how to destroy her before she destroys them.

Baghead was released in cinemas across the U.K. and Ireland on Friday, 26 January 2024.
