She memorably played a hippie wiccan girl in "Blair Witch 2" (a film I frankly thought was underrated) , and was quite good in it. She did a couple Woody Allen films after that—small parts—and had a lead role in "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" remake in '03. She also had roles in a handful of indie dramas ("Little Athens", "Mozart and the Whale") in the mid-2000s, but she seems to have fallen off the face of the earth in the last six years. Her most recent credit was Allen's "Magic in the Moonlight" (2014) which I've not seen, but it seems she had a bit part in it. She was offbeat, pretty, and a good actress. What went wrong? What is she up to now?

Yeah it is really odd that she just disappeared. What happened? Even her IG hasn't been updated in years.

She is married and in her 40's now.

Sure but why isn’t she doing movies anymore?

[–] elcamino (15540) 4 years ago

Not everyone I guess wants to make horror movies for years.

She could be doing other types of movies. I mean looking at her wiki page she even studied and graduated in acting

"Blair Witch 2" (a film I frankly thought was underrated)

Yeah, I thought it was good too; and far better than the overrated first flick.

As far as why she hasn't done any movies since 2013 (when her last films were shot), I like the way the other poster summed it up: She's in her 40s, married and not everyone wants to do horror flicks perpetually.
