DB: I basically get tortured the entire movie, in so many different ways. I mean, in the car accident I get pretty messed up. There's stuff stuck in me and I'm laying back and my head's just bleeding. Then throughout the movie-- Chrissie's kind of out and about doing her thing. And I'm really the only girl in the house. So I'm like the doll that gets tied up.

BD: You are strapped to the hoe?

DB: Yes. I'm tied to a hoe. The only reason why is because I tried to get away from the house. So they kind of teach me a lesson.

BD: Jordana has more of a heroic role. She's trying to rescue you. But you're pretty much the damsel in distress.

DB: Very much so.

BD: Did you have any reservations about playing that role? Even thought there's a long tradition of it?

DB: No. I mean, it's been a fun character. She's kind of sassy and talks back and even in the midst of her being tortured she's kinda like, "F you," and "Get your hands off me." So it's been fun. I mean, she probably deserves a little bit of slapping around, the way her mouth's been going. But, yeah.
