Blaine Anderson
Blaine Anderson, a name that might not ring a bell for everyone, but if you’ve ever fallen down the rabbit hole of cult comedies or indie thrillers, there’s a good chance you’ve run into his work. He’s popped up in “Hot Tub Time Machine” (2010)—yeah, the one with the ridiculous time-traveling jacuzzi. Not exactly Oscar bait, but let’s be real, it’s a blast if you’re in the mood for absurd, off-the-wall humor and a heavy dose of nostalgia. Blaine slips in there among a cast of chaos, giving you those oddball moments that stick in your brain way after the credits roll.
Skip ahead a few years, and he shows up in “Residue” (2017), which is basically the polar opposite vibe. No more goofy time-machine shenanigans—it’s gritty, dark, and a bit trippy. Think urban decay, shadowy conspiracies, and a whole lot of “what the hell is happening?” energy. Anderson’s role brings some real texture to the story, adding to the paranoia and unease that pretty much defines the movie’s mood from start to finish.
Then there’s “Candiland” (2016), which, honestly, is a wild ride all by itself. It’s twisted, intimate, and a tad uncomfortable—definitely not for everyone, but if you’re into psychological drama that pokes at your brain, you’ll find something to chew on. Blaine’s performance digs into the messiness of human relationships and obsession, showing off a side that’s way more raw than the slapstick stuff. All in all, Anderson’s filmography is kind of eclectic, which is part of the fun—never really know what you’re gonna get.
