I have some more movie screen caps for you today! I’ve just uploaded ca. 100 medium-res screen captures of a beautiful Tricia as Sasha in Joel David Moore’s thriller Spiral (2007), co-starring Moore, Amber Tamblyn and Zachary Levi. Unfortunately for us, Tricia’s role in the movie is rather small; you have to wait for her appearance for over an hour, and even then she only gets a few minutes of onscreen time.

Personally, I quite liked the film. Spiral is a fresh and almost personal approach to a thriller with great performances by the main cast, including Tricia; despite the role of Sasha being rather small, Tricia once again delivers a genuine and believable performance. I’d check it out if I were you!

It was a while ago since we had any news on Walk All Over Me. Today, however, I have 983 wonderful, if only medium-res, screen captures of Tricia’s brilliant portrayal of Celene for you, which I hope you’ll enjoy. If anyone is able to send in better quality captures, please do so! The Region 1 DVD does unfortunately not work for me. Meanwhile, enjoy these caps.

By the way, I have to add Tricia is simply phenomenal as Celene. What a brilliant performance! I highly suggest checking out the movie if it is available to you; the casting is spot-on, while the script is terribly funny.

“No, I’m a virgin! I’m an NGTV virgin!”

As earlier reported, Tricia was recently on No Good TV with Spiral co-stars Zachary Levi, Joel Moore (also director) and Jeremy Danial Boreing (also writer). The interview is now available at NGTV.com, and is definitely worth a watch. particularly as the clip contains a lot of new, unseen footage of Tricia as Sasha in the film. A word of warning, though; the clip does contain some mature language.

Naturally, I’ve made some screen captures of the lovely Tricia on the show, a preview of which you’ll find below. Enjoy!

Furthermore, I hear Tricia was scheduled to appear on VH1’s Best Week Ever last week - if anyone was able to save a clip of her appearance, please get in touch! Thank you.

Things are a wee bit quiet with Tricia right now. However, her latest film, the Robert Cuffley-directed crime drama comedyWalk All Over Me, was recently reviewed by Peter Hodkinson of DVDFeed.com.au, who seems to have loved Tricia’s performance and gave the film an overall rating of 8/10. From DVDFeed.com.au:

Luckily, Celene is a fantastic character and Tricia Helfer plays her perfectly, quickly endearing herself to the viewer.

Tricia Helfer is perfect as the tough, controlling dominatrix Celene. Beautiful and strong, her fight scene is brilliant and very well directed. Small budget films can sometimes live and die by their physical occurrences, but this one is brilliant. The other standout performance comes from Lothaire Bluteau, who plays the criminal mastermind Rene.

With wonderful performances by Lothaire Bluteau and Tricia Helfer, Walk All Over Me will tickle you just where you like it.

IFMagazine recently sat down with Tricia’s Spiral co-star Zachary Levi to discuss the film. Read the interview in its entirety at IFMagazine.com - here’s what Levi had to say on working with Tricia:

F: What was it like working with Tricia Helfer from Battlestar Galactica?
LEVI: Tricia was a doll. She was ridiculously talented and ridiculously hot. She was so nice. She was only there one day and it was a great day. We sat around and talked about life and Battlestar Galactica and her husband and how great life was and it was a really fun time to be making the movie. That day with Tricia was a lot of fun. I hope that our paths cross again in the future and we get to work together again, because she really is a class act.

iF: Well you guys both work for NBC Universal so there’s a chance she could end up on Chuck after Battlestar winds down.
LEVI: Oh yeah! I could totally see her on Chuck. She could be Yvonne [Strahovski]’s sister!

Well said, Levi, we couldn’t agree more. The interview also implies that Tricia indeed has a very small supporting role in the film, seeing that she was on set only for one day. Read the full interview at IFMagazine.com!

Tricia and Walk All Over Me have been garnering some Canadian press attention of late. Here’s a summary of what’s worth a look. Kicking things off with Western Canadian movie magazine Reel West, which features an interview with Walk All Over Me-director Robert Cuffley in their January-February 2008 issue. Tricia and co-star Leelee Sobieski grace the cover in appropriate Walk All Over Me dominatrix gear. Thanks to Tricia’s official site for the heads-up.

Furthermore, The Montreal Gazette recently published a rather mixed review on Walk All Over Me, but commented positively on Tricia’s performance. Read the review in its entirety at Canada.com, below is the excerpt regarding Tricia:

Again, to Cuffley’s credit, he creates characters who are inherently seductive. Both Alberta and Celine are fascinating studies of femininity and female stereotypes, and both Sobieski and Helfer bring incredible depth to the fore - but we never get enough moments between the two of them to suck on the marrow of the story.

Finally, we have another Canadian article centering on Tricia herself. The Calgary Herald recently sat down with Tricia for an interview, which you can read in its entirety at Canada.com. That’s all!

I just got word that Robert Cuffley’s dominatrix crime drama Walk All Over Me, in which Tricia portrays Celene alongside Leelee Sobieski, will be screened a the Shadows of the Mind Film Festival in Canada. No word on whether Tricia will be attending the event or not, but the festival official site reports many filmmakers are scheduled to make an appearance, which may or may not include Tricia. Nor have the festival organizers announced any specifics regarding the date and time of the screening, however the event will run February 19-24 2008. Check the Shadow Film Festival official site for details and tickets.

A darkly comedic thriller laced with love, latex and empowerment. A small town girl, Alberta (Sobieski), struggles to control her fate when she takes on her roommate Celene’s (Helfer) identity as a dominatrix to pay the bills. It all begins when she meets Paul (Tierney), her first customer, who isn’t all that weird actually, but surprisingly young and attractive. In the midst of their strange, sexually charged role-play, they are interrupted by a trio of criminals who make it clear they aren’t leaving until Paul hands over the half million dollars they’re convinced he stole from them. When it becomes apparent that Paul is not going to reveal the whereabouts of the cash, the trio targets Alberta, thrusting her and Celene into leading roles in this dangerous game. Only Celene’s self-defense skills and Alberta’s adrenaline-powered panic allows them to overpower the team of criminals. When Celene is caught and held captive by the trio, Alberta has to find the courage to make the most difficult choice of her life.

Furthermore, I was able to find another medium-res photo belonging to Tricia’s Walk All Over Me promoshoot with co-star Leelee Sobieski. Click on the above preview to see it!
