Exclusive Interview: Calvin McCarthy – character Josh Enders in The Last Slay Ride
Amazon : The Last Slay Ride
How did you get attached to The Last Slay Ride? – I had worked with the director (Jason Hawkins) on the last two of his projects prior to “Last Slay Ride”. One of which (Deleted) I played the lead role in. I chalk it up to the right place, right time, and a familiarity with the overall team.
What was your role in The Last Slay Ride? – I played the role of Josh. the director of the fictional film “Slash camp”, and bumbling fool that attempts to lead his friends through a fight of good and evil.
What is your favorite scene in the film? – I think my favorite scene was also my favorite to film; The Big vampire reveal. Which was some of the first stuff we shot, day three or four if I remember correctly.
