That was exciting and kind of delicious. There\u2019s no way to rein it in when your character is constantly in a life and death situation, and you\u2019re literally being chased by a monster with an axe!\u201d Ella Rubin, who plays Clover, says.<\/p>\n
Michael Cimino, who plays Clover\u2019s ex-boyfriend Max, was fascinated about the changes their characters go through as the story progresses. \u201cI love that every character, after each night, is changing a bit and revealing more of themselves. Every character is on an admittedly scary path of self-discovery,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n
As a tight-knit circle of friends, there are different roles that the characters fit into in a group dynamic. For Ji-young Yoo, she thinks of her character Megan \u201cspiritual core of the group,\u201d she says. \u201cMegan is a strong believer in the supernatural. She thinks that the trip is going to help them all lock into some kind of energy from the missing Melanie. That will help them all close out this chapter in their lives.\u201d\u201c<\/p>\n
Somehow the odd one out, Belmont Cameli\u2019s character Abe, feels just a little distant from the group. \u201cAbe is definitely on the group\u2019s periphery,\u201d says Cameli, who takes on the role. \u201cHe\u2019s also a bit of a know-it-all and smartass. I also enjoyed that Abe is on the outside of this inner circle of friends and playing that dynamic with the rest of the cast.\u201d<\/p>\n
Even through the rough patches that come with the worst night of their lives, their friendship is held strong by Clover.\u00a0 \u201cClover is the anchor of the movie. She\u2019s the reason the friends come together and undertake this journey. They rally around Clover and want to give her closure to the disappearance of her sister, in the hopes of finding their friend, again,\u201d says writer Dauberman.<\/p>\n
Stay tuned to see if this group of friends survive Until Dawn, in Philippine cinemas on Friday, April 25.<\/p>\n

About \u201cUntil Dawn\u201d<\/p>\n
One year after her sister Melanie mysteriously disappeared, Clover and her friends head into the remote valley where she vanished in search of answers. Exploring an abandoned visitor center, they find themselves stalked by a masked killer and horrifically murdered one by one\u2026only to wake up and find themselves back at the beginning of the same evening. Trapped in the valley, they\u2019re forced to relive the night again and again – only each time the killer threat is different, each more terrifying than the last. Hope dwindling, the group soon realizes they have a limited number of deaths left, and the only way to escape is to survive until dawn. Until Dawn, is directed by David F. Sandberg, and stars Ella Rubin, Michael Cimino, Odessa A\u2019zion, Ji-young Yoo, Belmont Cameli, Maia Mitchell, and Peter Stormare. Based on the Playstation Studios video game<\/p>\n
