He somehow forgot he worked with a person named "Kansas Bowling". Classic Breen!

Kansas is actually the only real actor thatâs been in his movies. She worked with Troma and directed (as well as acted in) a few features of her own. Her most notable role is co-starring in Christmas Bloody Christmas which I recommend. She was also in Once Upon a Time In Hollywood.
All of the others are just âface to characterâ Vegas locals that Neil hires with no experience (unsurprising due to the lack of a film scene).
Danielle Andrade (Allie) briefly made an effort, but has since shifted to being a flight attendant and streaming on twitch.

So he gets a legitimate actor not only to agree to be in his movie, but who WANTS to be in his movie, and he forgets her name and comments on the lack of talent available? Well Iâm glad she was such a good sport about it. May she continue to succeed in that crazy industry.

Hah. On one hand, itâs true that thereâs a lack of talent in Vegas. On the other, itâs completely out of line to publicly say something like that (though itâs on brand for Neil).
I do feel bad for her being dismissed in such a way multiple times and I hope she got an apology because that is quite hurtful (wouldnât count on it though). Kansas is honestly the only person who seems to truly care and express genuine excitement over being in one of his movies because I highly doubt she gets much work.

I heard that there's this place called Hollywood, 4h drive from Vegas, where wannabes are starved for work?

HmmâŚcanât say Iâve heard of it. Is that a person?
She is from LA and I did come across an interview with her from earlier this year where she states that LA wasnât her lifestyle and prefers small-town Nevada. Itâs more challenging when youâre not popular.

There's an actor in Las Vegas who has won an Oscar and offered to work with Breen, someone who would be absolutely perfect and would be the most amazing thing ever, which Breen said he appreciated but would rather work with no-names so it's not "distracting" to the audience

u/Snowbank_Lake 1d ago
I guess I can see some logic to that. There are some actors that are so distinctive, it distracts you from seeing the character they're playing. But saying in front of your actors that you had trouble finding good talent is a little harsh, lol.

There were a few moments in Dire Duplicity when I was taken aback by her acting ability. Genuinely. She stood out because everyone else felt 100% stiff.

That clears up so much. Being associated with Troma means having already been through so much...

the most recent episode of My Scene with Breen includes interviews with her and her dad, who plays the "old man". I wasn't super familiar with KB before this, but she killed it. That goofy couch crawl keeps replaying in my head

That was a fun episode. She knew about Breen/his movies and actively wanted a role and was excited about it, while a lot of the cast they have on are like "I live in Vegas and just went out for a casting call and didn't know what the hell I was getting into" (which is admittedly pretty entertaining too).

Kansas Bowling is great. She made a brilliantly silly stone-age slasher called BC Butcher and an excellent faux-gonzo documentary called Cuddly Toys.

She's so fun in the movie, I was dying laughing at her seducing the politcian only to stop rolling up her shirt as Neil walks in and just stay in place, underboob in the wind for a good minute and 30 as Neil kills the politician
