She is Mother Firefly in Rob Zombie’s The Devils’s Rejects, and Patty Frost in Zombie’s 2007 box office hit, Halloween. Leslie is Bunny in Murder at the Presidio, a USA Network movie that’s now available on DVD and, in the original Broadway production of Neil Simon’s California Suite, she created the role of Bunny.
