Afterward, investigators discovered a nearby surveillance camera, which revealed that Brown had stepped out of the way of the falling pole but then, with no one else around, had crawled underneath and began wailing in “pain,” perhaps in anticipation of a future lawsuit.

HALLOWEEN EVENTS: Want to know what’s going on this Halloween season? See the list on Page 6. BY ADAM TESTA THE SOUTHERN
HERRIN — Visitors creep down dark hallways, hands tightly gripping the shoulder of the friend in front of them. Unsure what lies around each corner, groups navigate their way through the various rooms — some lighted, others not — of Chittyville School. Much of the terror comes from within, where visitors attempt to mentally prepare for what might be in store when they turn a corner. But, in reality, natural fears of the unknown aren’t enough to invoke the desired screams of horror and frightfilled reactions of the organizers of the haunted house. That requires a more personal touch. “I don’t think people realize how much acting goes into a haunt,” said Tara Webb, office manager of KFS Events, which sponsors the annual Haunting of Chittyville School. “You have to be
unrecognizable and completely insane. You have to become that character, just like you’re in a movie.” And becoming a character is something Webb and the other actors and actresses working inside the haunted house embrace. Even if they’re portraying a generic character, like Webb’s “ghost lady,” they seek to add a personal flair to the ensemble. While it begins with an over-the-top personality, that type of character building also requires several other fine touches. Theater makeup becomes a key player and can make or break a successful haunter. “The makeup has a lot to do with it,” said Taylor King, whose parents Frank and Vickie King own and operate the haunted school. “If you can’t even recognize yourself, you’re really going to become that character.” And once the character is developed, performers have to learn the tricks of the trade. Webb said she’s been working
much more with actors on developing little additions to the show that will add new layers to the scare tactics. Among the key tools in the haunter’s kit are secret passageways and hidden halls that allow the actors to move unknowingly ahead in the set, creating an opportunity to scare a patron just as they think they’ve made it past that particular character. And while many haunted houses cater to an all-age demographic, the Haunting of Chittyville is promoted for an older crowd. This dynamic also adds a layer of flexibility to what lengths the performers can go to in order to achieve their goal of a blood-curdling scream. “At night, it’s full on. We have a disclaimer and you’re in for a scare,” Webb said. “We don’t hold back.” But for one afternoon, the staff and performers at Chittyville School will put away the blood and gore and make way for area children to come through and see
the elaborate set that’s been created. The building’s lights will be turned on and its characters toned down for a matinee from 2 to 4 p.m. Oct. 23, where candy will be provided to visiting children. Between meeting with children during the matinee and scaring their peers during the regular shows, Webb and King said there are countless stories to share at the end of each night. And that’s a feeling Jessica Kocher is looking forward to experiencing this year. Last year, the Herrin woman visited the haunt as a guest and experienced the scares. But this year, she’ll be on the other end of the equation, as she’s joining the array of characters lining the school’s makeshift halls. “I get to see what I looked like when I walked through that door, wondering what’s coming,” Kocher said. adam.testa@thesouthern.com 618-351-5031

Spencers keep the magic of illusion alive Theater of Illusion Kevin and Cindy Spencer; 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 15; Carson Center, 100 Kentucky Ave., Paducah; tickets are $15 for adults and $7.50 for students younger than 18. BY ADAM TESTA THE SOUTHERN
PADUCAH — Two types of people attend a modern-day magic show: those willing to suspend their disbelief for entertainment and those seeking to debunk each act. For traveling illusionist Kevin Spencer, people from both philosophies belong in the crowd. “A good audience is a combo of both of them,” said Spencer, who along with his wife, Cindy, performs the nationally renown “Theater of Illusion.” “I love being on stage looking at the crowd and seeing people elbow their neighbor and whisper in their ear and having them shrug their shoulders.”
The Spencers bring their show — which blends the best elements of classic theater, a rock concert and a magic show — to the Carson Center on Friday, Oct. 15. Along with the couple comes 12 tons of equipment used to create the second largest magic or illusionist show in the nation, behind only legend David Copperfield. And unlike Copperfield, the Spencers prefer life on the road, traveling from city to city. They meet new people, work with new crews, see different parts of the world and are forced to adapt their show depending on the stage and space limitations of each venue. “I love that challenge,” Spencer said. “I think it keeps the magic fresh and entertaining.” Among other illusions, Spencer recreates a 1914 Harry Houdini illusion where he walks through a solid, concrete wall with an audience member on the stage to ensure the authenticity of the act. But much like the rest of their illusions, the
Spencers have modernized and improved this act by making it more theatrical in nature, taking it from “a great illusion” to “a brilliant piece of theater.” The show may be geared toward adults but it’s also appropriate for children of all ages, Spencer said. And if the show’s done right, it may just bring out the inner child in everyone. “People enjoy being mystified,” he said. “All of us have this thing in us that believes anything is possible. As children we believe that, but as we get older we get more jaded and skeptical.” In addition to theater and fair performances, the Spencers also spend much of their time on the road at hospitals, schools and other social service organizations. They founded “The Healing of Magic” and “Hocus Focus,” which help combine simple magic tricks with rehabilitation and education for children with learning disabilities. adam.testa@thesouthern.com 618-351-5031

“I just want people to start listening to the music and quit talking about David Allan Coe the person,” Coe says. “Talk about the music. Look into the music. Find out that there’s more to me than two X-rated albums.” Released from the Ohio State Penitentiary in 1968, Coe migrated to Nashville. He was a shameless selfpromoter. He lived in an old hearse with his name painted on the side and would park it in front of the Ryman Auditorium as huge crowds were flocking into the Grand Ole Opry. As he honed the rough edges from his writing skills, he made friends in the songwriting community. Mel Tillis gave him a rhinestone suit and he was soon stuck with “The Mysterious Rhinestone Cowboy” moniker. Mystery has always clouded his career. He claims to have taught Charles Manson how to play guitar and that Jimmy Hoffa bought him his first tour bus. SEE COE / PAGE 17

Helen Mirren stars in ‘Red,’ which opens Friday in Carbondale and Marion.
Seeing ‘Red’ in this violent thriller ‘Red’ **1/2 Rated PG-13 for intense sequences of action violence and brief strong language; starring Bruce Willis, Mary-Louise Parker, Morgan Freeman, Helen Mirren and John Malkovich; directed by Robert Schwentke; opening Friday at ShowPlace 8 in Carbondale and Illinois Centre 8 in Marion. BY ROGER MOORE MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS
Oh, that “Red” was the giddy romp it might have been, it promises to be or it thinks it is. It has the best cast of any action comedy movie, maybe ever: four Oscar winners plus Bruce Willis. But despite that and a winning concept — that somebody, maybe in government, is trying to kill off aged, retired CIA assassins — director Robert “Flightplan”
Page 16 Thursday, October 14, 2010 FLIPSIDE
Schwentke never lets this one achieve takeoff. Willis plays Frank Moses, a lonely, retired government agent whose one joy in his solitary life is flirting with the lady who makes sure his pension checks show up. He even pretends he hasn’t received those checks just for the chance to chat with Sarah, played with doe-eyed, flirtatious enthusiasm by MaryLouise Parker. But Frank’s life in hiding comes to a bullet-riddled end. Not his life, just his seclusion. He grabs Sarah — who is frightened, outraged, appalled and maybe a little turned on. They go on the lam, scrambling to find old colleagues as a government agent (Karl Urban) stays hot, or at least lukewarm, on their trail. Willis delivers his ageless brand of action cool — one neat stunt has him stepping out of a spinning car and squeezing off a few rounds at his pursuers in the
middle of the French Quarter. But what sells this are those other “retired, extremely dangerous” agents. Helen Mirren is hilariously droll and unflappable. John Malkovich is even more hilarious and utterly flappable. There’s even a winning cameo by ancient Oscar winner Ernest Borgnine. That old Hollywood saying, “Good villains make good thrillers,” is pretty much where “Red” comes up short. The solution to the mystery of who is after them and why is a letdown. And the fellow pulling the strings does nothing surprising. Urban’s earnestness is not enough to sustain interest until we finally confront Mr. Big. But “Red” has enough acting flourishes and incidental action pleasures to make it an adrenalinejacked giggle, if not exactly the romp one so fervently expects.

‘Jackass 3D’ Johnny Knoxville and his band of crazies return to the big screen this weekend with more death-defying, totally stupid stunts ... this time in 3-D. But the return of Knoxville’s popular ‘Jackass,’ which originally launched as an MTV television show, comes with one additional stunt: not screening the film for advance review. Why didn’t Paramount screen it for critics? We asked. Haven’t received an answer. But it’s safe to assume that no review could dissuade “Jackass” fans from showing up. Why we’d see it: The whole “Jackass” phenomenon appeals to the drunken frat boy in each of us. And did we mention it’s in 3-D? Why we wouldn’t: We already have enough stupidity in our lives. The movie is rated R for male nudity, extremely crude and dangerous stunts and language. Directed by Jeff Tremaine, the film stars Knoxville, Steve-O, Bam Margera, Chris Pontius and Jason Acuna. It opens Friday at Showplace 8 in Carbondale. — McClatchy-Tribune News STUDIO

Kathleen Turner and Evan Jonigkeit perform a scene from ‘High.’ Turner plays Sister Jamison Connelly, a hardbitten nun who works at a treatment center for drug addicts, where she takes on the case of a teenager she doesn’t think she can help, a male prostitute addicted to meth and who knows what else. Cody (Jonigkeit) proves to be an even more difficult patient than Sister Jamison foresaw, forcing her to confront her own demons.
on Lombardo’s addiction to crystal meth. (He’s been clean for more than three years.) In “High,” Turner plays Sister Jamison Connelly, a hard-bitten nun who works at a treatment center for drug addicts. The priest in charge (played by Michael Berresse) insists that she take on the case of a teenager she doesn’t think she can help, a male prostitute addicted to meth and who knows what else.
Cody (Evan Jonigkeit) proves to be an even more difficult patient than Sister Jamison foresaw, forcing her to confront her own demons. Among other things, Cody tries to seduce her. It’s a long, agonizing scene, one that Jonigkeit plays in the nude. Turner, who had a far briefer nude scene in “The Graduate,” gives the young actor credit for performing with conviction. Onstage nudity is “tough, so
tough,” she said. “I wonder if it’s worse for a man than for a woman? At the time (of ‘The Graduate’), I was 48,” Turner said. “So part of it was, HAH! I was just so sick of hearing how a woman can’t be attractive after 40. “But you know something? Nudity turns into just another costume.” If age was one ego-eater that she defied in her nude scene, a more powerful one was pain.
z MOVIES z ART z MUSIC z PEOPLE z THEATER z THINGS TO DO z BOOKS z Turner has rheumatoid arthritis. In her memoir, “Send Yourself Roses,” she lays it all out: going onstage in “Indiscretions” after packing her swollen feet in ice to cram them into high heels, weeping helplessly in the bathroom until her daughter Rachel, a little girl at the time, came to squeeze a bottle of skin lotion for her. She couldn’t do that herself. “Pain is a real mindbender,” sighed Turner, who attributes her divorce from a New York businessman partly to the strain that her illness placed on the marriage. “It strips you of so much — your confidence, your physicality. It’s very hard on a relationship.” It’s also hard on a career, particularly a career as physically demanding as live theater. In recent years, Turner counts herself lucky to feel pretty good again. New drugs came along, drugs that helped her feel good enough to take the next
step, physical therapy. She’s determined to keep moving, a regimen that now includes three or four Pilates classes every week. “I got my hands back!” she exclaims, making fists, and grins. “I don’t wear heels anymore.” Turner was born in Springfield, Mo., which she considers her hometown although she didn’t exactly grow up there. Her father, Richard Turner, was in the Foreign Service; while the family was in Belgium, her mother, Patsy Magee Turner, returned to the U.S. to give birth to Kathleen, the third of their four children. Turner’s grandparents had a farm just outside the city, a place where the children spent happy vacations fishing in the creek and picking peaches, “every kid’s dream of summer.” Because of Richard Turner’s career, the family moved a lot: Canada, Cuba, Venezuela. Then, when Turner was about
14, they moved to England — not a bad place to take the theater plunge. “The start of real acting for me began in London,” she writes in her memoir. “There were seven of us (in her international high school) who were sort of a theater mafia. We produced, directed, acted, chose the plays. ... It was great fun.” Turner hoped to continue theater studies at a college in London. Then, while he was working in his rose garden, Richard Turner dropped dead. It was a week before his daughter’s graduation The older children were already back in the United States, going to college. With few choices and a fast decision to make, Patsy Turner and her younger children returned to her parents and Springfield. Kathleen Turner didn’t have many options, either: She headed across town to enroll in Southwest Missouri State University
(now Missouri State). “It was really the only thing to do at the time,” Turner said. “I don’t know that it had to be Springfield, but it was good to come back. It made me an American actress rather than a fake British actress.” Patsy Turner still lives in Springfield, an active volunteer for arts and child-welfare causes. (Her daughter gives her a special present: Once a year, Turner does a benefit for an organization of her mother’s choosing.) She and some of her friends are coming to St. Louis to see “High.” “That reminds me,” Turner said. “I need to send her a copy of the script. “I want her to be forewarned.”
