Hollywood's Horror Chef

Meet Janice Poon, Hollywood’s go-to chef for all things gruesome.

She’s responsible for the edible props on some of your favorite film and TV sets; Star Trek alien hors d'oeuvres, rat organs and raw meatballs for Hemlock and a pair of eel covered feet in Del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities.

Her grizzliest creations feature in psychological horror-thriller Hannibal. Cooking for Hollywood’s best loved cannibalistic serial killer, she’s served up eyeball appetizers, Gillian Anderson’s severed leg and a whole human body, peking style. 

Of course, none of these dishes are what they appear...
