Abruptio's Cast Combines New & Surprising Choices With a Top-Tier Horror Pedigree
The cast of Abruptio is an interesting and dynamic group of elite performers. Seeing Robert Englund on the cast list as Mr. Salk will surely thrill horror buffs, while innovative horror filmmaker Jordan Peele stars Danny. Marlowe was fortunate to get both performers on board for Abuptio, Englund retiring as Freddy Krueger and Peele still quite picky in accepting assignments as an actor.
Not only are Englund and Peele among the Abruptio cast members who have spent a lot of time in the eerie and graphic domain. Though not strictly horror, Les Hackel actor James Marsters delighted in a long run as Spike on Buffy the Vampire Slayer; Hana Mae Lee, who portrays Chelsea, is well-known in part for her parts in the horror comedies The Babysitter and The Babysitter: Killer Queen. Sid Haig of House of 1000 Corpses also joins them, which makes Abruptio one of the last presentations of late horror legends.
