I forgot how I used to obsess over her when I was a kid. I saw Halloween 4 when I was about 10, so she was always alluring to me. She had captured my feelings in an interview where she said how a lot of her fans are right around her own age bracket because most of them were kids when they had seen her Halloween movies. She also mentioned that many of these fans have also told her that she was their first crush. It's like she's reading my mind.
I'm more inclined to believe that Danielle isn't human, but something more magical, like an elf. She is short, she looks exotic, and she has a magnetism. The ability to shine even in bad movies, which she has plenty of. Here's a few I watched on Tubi:
Cyrus: Mind of a Serial Killer (2010) - Think Henry, but more DTV. Lance Henriksen is the guy spilling the beans on a serial killer scoop to reporter Danielle. She's not in much since her role is to hear the story, though she does join into the big story at the end... in a minimal capacity. Okay then...
Hatchet II (2010) - Adam Green had to give her something respectable. Her lines are a bit redundant, "my family is dead!" but she looks damn good in this movie. The first movie's girl was okay, and I'm not sure why she didn't want to come back, but Danielle is always the best choice.
Hatchet III (2013) - I was starting to think that she could make for Crowley's perfect nemesis, should this franchise keep going. She looks damn good in this movie too, like in her jail cell outfit. They hose her down to get the blood off, and you can see that huge tattoo on her side. Not a fan of that tat. Covers/ruins too much of her skin. And then at the end, they have her go down in a blaze of glory... I could have sworn she was cut-and-dry dead at the end, but that final gasp in the end credits has me wondering if she could come back in part 5...
Camp Dread (2014) - You know you're in trouble when you're in a movie with Eric Roberts! This is a camp reality/slasher thing that I've already forgotten most of. She's barely in it. She comes in looking like she'll serve a good purpose, but then they write her out quick.
Redwood Massacre: Annihilation (2020) - Finally, a better effort. This movie looks a bit better made for a DTV type, and Danielle looks like she had a little more fun with this one. Some government slasher experiment in a military compound out in the redwoods, and Dani plays a tough type. It's funny seeing her little self overpowering a big guy. I'm not convinced! She can take me down anytime though. It's actually a decent effort, but the ending sucks.
Danielle Harris is too good for this world. The little girl who played Jamie Lloyd is going to be 50 in a few years. Time frightens me. I think she's aging great though. She was able to play a teenager at 30 in RZ's Halloween movies. I think about how I'm the same age as she was when I met her at my first con 11 years ago. Her life was already filled with loads of acting credits. I'm as old as she was then and I still haven't done shit. She's an inspiration, being in all kinds of random-ass horror flicks all the time. Her life must be awesome.
