8 Crazy Horror Movie Truths We’ve Just Learned
6. Lauren LaVera Refused To Shoot A Terrifier 3 Scene Because Of Her Love Of Nutella
Who doesn't love sticking a spoon (or 10) into a big tub of Nutella and regretting their choices a few hours later, eh?
Lauren LaVera, one of the stars of Terrifier 3, is also quite the fan of the chocolate hazelnut spread, and this was the main reason why she demanded something change in one particular scene in the movie before she shot it.
There's a point there when her character, Sienna, finds herself having to deal with someone trying to choke her with intestines. Director Damien Leone wanted her to chew through them, as LaVera would recently tell SFX Magazine (via LADBible), but after they suggested using Nutella for the faeces she quickly begged them to use something else.
Instead of ruining Nutella, then, the special effects team left LaVera not looking at crushed cherries the same away again, with these - combined with washing up liquid- being used to create the barmy moment in the end.
The combo shot right up her nose when they shot the horrible scene, and this was the take they ultimately used. LaVera would also claim she spent the next few days coughing up washing up liquid, too. Lovely.
But at least she can still enjoy a nice bite of Nutella. That's all that really matters.
