SplatterTribe: Introduce and compare yourself to some sort of breakfast cereal and then explain why the comparison...

Tara Cardinal: I'm Tara Cardinal, and I'm the actress version of Kay's natural cereal - high protein, low fat, low carbs, and gluten free. Why?? I'm high action, low talk, low drama and bullshit free.

 

SplatterTribe: For anyone who may not know who you are, please enlighten them with a little history/explanation.

Tara Cardinal: Me? I'm an actress, with a penchant for action films. Or cross genre action films (fantasy-action, horror-action, drama-action). Most of the directors with whom I've worked will write me in a little stunt scene if I didn't have one already.
In Divas of Novella, the director Tim Russ (yes, THE Tim Russ) had me take out 2 guys in 3 moves while I was wearing 6 inch platform boots, and a corset. I also do pro-style wrestling at the indie level, and I've been training in sword work since I was 16.

 

 

SplatterTribe: Tell us a little about the movies you have been in and or will be in…

Tara Cardinal: If I could, I'd spend the rest of my days with a sword in my hand.

The biggest (and longest) project I've worked on is Legend of the Red Reaper,
a fantasy action film. I'd describe it as Kill Bill meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer, set in Lord of the Rings time period. The face book fan page has tons of screen shots and behind the scenes photos. The film has enough "splatter" to keep the horror fans happy too . It should hit shelves towards the end of this year.

I've also starred in a number of horror and thriller movies. Delivery is probably the most popular film I've done, distributed by Warner Brothers and has world wide distribution. It's a slasher film, a throw back to the 70's/80's slashers. In my opinion, very well written - it's not for the low brow horror film lovers. There's a ton of character development, so you really get to know your killer!
 

SplatterTribe: If you where to mate with any creature from any movie ever, what creature would you mate with?

Tara Cardinal: Oh, see, there's a good question! I think my first choice - I'd mate with the Demon "Ganesh" in Legend of the Red Reaper.
He is knock your sox off sexy! More so in the comic book version with the immortal design...

A close second would be one of the Centaurs from the Chronicles of Narnia.

 

 

SplatterTribe: What would you do if you where standing in line at a gas station and the guy in front of you unknowingly dropped…

Tara Cardinal:

- a photo of you? - I'd kick his ass
- a photo of your residence? - I'd kick his ass
- your ID? - I'd kick his ass
- a baggie full of some sort of green plant looking substance? - I'd kick his ass
- his pants? - I'd kick his ass
- his “I steal candy from little babies and wallets from little, old ladies” membership card? - I'd kick his ass
- his ID and it says “WALDO” - I'd kick his ass

 

SplatterTribe: If I was an expert martial artist, that could fly, and I have killed at will for years, because I am just an all around bad, bad dude and I have conceived a devious plan to take over the world, because I am such a bad, bad dude; but at the same time, I have an addiction to red-heads and have you in my sights, would you join me in world domination? If not, how would you go about foiling my plans and/or killing me?
 

Tara Cardinal: It's a combination of both - I'd join forces in world domination to foil your plans and kill you. By the way, thanks for spoiling the plot for one of my favorite films.

 

 

SplatterTribe: How does the first & last hours of your day usually go?

Tara Cardinal:

Coffee in the morning
Tea at night
Morning cuddle with the kitten
Midnight cuddle with the kitten

 

 

SplatterTribe: What comes to mind when you hear the word SplatterTribe?

Tara Cardinal:

Sounds like the title of a GREAT movie.

 

 

SplatterTribe: If you where auditioning for a movie called ‘The SplatterTribe', how would you dress for the audition?

Tara Cardinal: Hey..!!! It would depend on the sides...

 

(Tribe Note: Like catering sides? Hmm? What's that got to do with it?)

 

SplatterTribe: I ask each Miss if they have a good, random question to ask the next Miss. That being said, this question comes from Miss April Katie Stewart and her question is…

“If you were hiding a Unicorn and a Leprechaun in a field of 4 Leaf Clovers...would you tell anyone?”

Tara Cardinal: Cute question Katie!
The answer is HELL NO! The unicorn and leprechaun are MINE! All mine!

 

SplatterTribe: Do you have a good, random question I can ask the next Miss?

Tara Cardinal: Sure - Miss June - what's your take on Karma? Get a little philosophical for us!

 

 

SplatterTribe: Do you believe… (and feel free to elaborate…)

Tara Cardinal:

--in ghosts? -- hmm... mostly
--in UFOs? -- it seems logical that we're not the only intelligent life out there. There's hardly intelligent life here.
--in conspiracy theories? -- Hmm... do I believe in theories? Or in conspiracies. History is littered with conspiracies. I don't see why it should have stopped now.
--in Sasquatch -- No
--in Zombies? -- Talk to me around 4pm. I am a zombie...
--that the world will end in 2012? -- No
--in 2nd chances? -- Not at ALL.
--in miracles? -- Not at ALL. I believe hard ass work.
--in magic? -- Nope - just the magic we create for ourselves, and the world around us.
--in Karma -- I sure do.
--that we landed on the moon? -- Yes
--in reincarnation? -- Maybe...
--that dreams mean something? -- Absolutely
--in fate? -- I think we make our own fate
--in world peace? -- Impossible. But that doesn't mean we shouldn't strive for it.
--everything happens for a reason? -- I think we can make a reason for everything that happens.
--in déjà vu? -- No
--in the butterfly effect? -- No

 

 

 

SplatterTribe: If someone where going to create a collectible toy of you would you want it to be...

 

Tara Cardinal: The RED REAPER!!!!!!! a little action figure.

 

 

SplatterTribe: ...and what would it be wearing and would it come with accessories?

Tara Cardinal: I'd be wearing my dress leather, my red and black bracers, black tights, black knee high boots, and carrying my chainmaille hilt swords that I designed for the character.

 

 

SplatterTribe: What percentage of your life is the following ratings?

Tara Cardinal:

G-　50% -- work work work!　　　　　　　　　　　　
PG-
PG-13- 25% -- my mouth Sarcasm. Wit.
R-
NC-17-
X-
NOT RATED- 25% -- I'll never tell

 

 

SplatterTribe: Songwriting Time! I wrote 2 lines to a song. Then Miss January Tucky Williams wrote 2 lines. Then, Miss February Karen Zombora wrote 2 lines, and then Miss March Adrienne Laine wrote 2 lines that where followed by two more from Miss April Katie Stewart ... Now it's your turn...

 

PS-You could always throw a Chorus in if you want!

Me:
If I had a million dollars to spare
I'd throw it in the air

Tucky:
And if I never have a place to be,
Then I’d rather it be you and me.

Karen:
But if you'd rather be alone,
I'll travel up there on my own.

Adrienne:
Cuz where you are, is where I'll be,
Forever baby you and me

Katie Stewart:
But if you choose to leave, I will understand
That you weren’t strong enough, to hold my hand.

Your Turn:
Tara Cardinal:
Because I can do this all on my own.
I'm strong enough all on my own.

 

 

 

(Tribe Note: OK, so, Tara skipped through a few questions on this Q & A and stated she was too busy to complete them. I wrote her a couple of times and asked about the remaining four questions and I stressed that I would at least like her to answer question 20, which is...

 

SplatterTribe: Any closing comments including anything you want said, known, printed or shown (include plugs and links)?

 

This is what I received back from her...

 

Tara Cardinal: I'm in over my head right now ... sorry. I can give you number 20

hugs hug hugs!!!!!
Tara

 

Well, that was the last I heard from Miss May Tara Cardinal. I never received her links or her plugs...or those remaining four questions, so I'm not sure what that message meant...

 

Now, normally I would be annoyed by such things, and out of spite, I might not include any information that was not provided... -BUT- Since I have been going to my therapist, in that shady, rundown, building downtown, and since I've been practicing my breathing techniques and frolicking in my happy place (hey, wait a minute...what the?), I will handle things a bit different this time...

 

Besides, Tara seems like a nice person anyway… I mean, she did write "hugs, hugs, hugs" and all, right?… PLUS, she might "...kick his ass"

...or a... mine...You know???

 

So here’s all the links you need to find out more on SplatterTribe.TV’s Miss May 2011.
