Karen Gillan is certainly no stranger to the world of horror, with two of her first features being Colm McCarthy’s supernatural thriller Outcast and Mike Flanagan’s directorial debut Oculus (which introduced the cursed Lasser Glass to wider audiences). Though she may be busy with other genres — from joining the cast of Shrinking to starring in the upcoming Highlander reboot — she hasn’t turned her back on her spooky roots, as evidenced by how much fun she had in a video with two icons from Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining.
Appearing in Monroeville, Penn. for the annual Steel City Con, Karen Gillan no doubt took pictures with a bunch of fans and answered a lot of fan questions about returning to the Jumanji franchise for the newest movie, which is to be expected. Something I don’t think many people would have readily anticipated, however, is seeing the Doctor Who vet standing in a hallway with The Shining’s Grady twins…or at least the actresses who portrayed the ghostly gals, Lisa and Louise Burns.
