Behind the Scenes with Desiree Gould on Under Surveillance

We’ve got some Great News for Aunt Martha fans tonight! After an almost two-decade-long hiatus from acting, SHE’S COMING BACK- No Strings attached!!! Joining the cast, which includes SLEEPAWAY’S killer camper FELISSA ROSE in the upcoming flick: UNDER SURVEILLANCE, DESIREE plays the pain-killer addicted mother of the movie’s main character. sleepawaycampmovies.com‘s JEFF HAYES also makes a cameo in the film and shot some behind-the-scenes photos of DESIREE prepping and rehearsing for one of her scenes.

She was one of the craziest AUNTS ever to grace the silver screen! She gave a performance that people will never forget…and then…she vanished! Desiree Gould hasn’t appeared in a movie in about 2 decades. SO you thought it was all “Water Under The Bridge” did ya?? THINK AGAIN! She re-emerged into the public eye at the SLEEPAWAY CAMP REUNION in 2001…and now she’s ready to take your breath away once again…
