...that failure, widely expected, does not daunt the intrepid young actor. According to Eisenberg, Cursed was “unique,” as the script developed “real characters. A lot of horror focuses on the horror. So you lose that development,” he told The Crimson a day before the film’s release...
...only had to change a few scenes, so everything we shot was out of context,” says Eisenberg. Thus they were able to salvage consistency in the film’s post-production. But though the actor assures that the changes didn’t affect the ultimate outcome in the quality of the film or cause the actors’ performances to suffer, it’s difficult to see how that’s possible, particularly considering Eisenberg’s past performances...

Nicholas’s success in these roles is a great credit to his acting talent...
