“Watch Piper Perabo’s Chilling Serial Killer Role in ‘The Hunting Party’ Preview”
Piper Perabo guest-stars as Colette Akins in the April 9 episode of NBC’s The Hunting Party. Filmogaz.com has an exclusive preview of a tense mortuary scene that turns murderous.
Character background
Colette grew up working in her family’s mortuary business. Long exposure to embalming chemicals led her to develop auditory psychosis. That condition helped push her into serial killing.
She escaped from The Pit during the explosion that launched the series. Now she is searching for the comfort of a particular voice. The episode follows her attempts to find it.
The preview scene
The clip shows Colette preparing her father’s body when her sister arrives. Liza, played by Becca Kotte, criticizes Colette’s technique and points out the casket will be closed.
Tensions rise. Colette whispers that their father looks handsome. Then she begins to hear his voice. Liza taunts her, and the father’s voice pushes Colette to stand up for herself. The preview reveals the haunting voice that drives Colette.
What the producer says
Executive producer JJ Bailey explains the series often gives its guest killers substantial screen time. That allows actors to try roles against type and explore darker territory.
