Horror Films Don't Create Fear. They Release

When I Was A Kid, I Was Taken To Something Called Telenews In Cleveland By My Best Friend's Father. My Own Father Was Gone By The Time I Was 5, I Think, But This Man Would Take Us To Telenews At The End Of World War Ii, And We'd Watch All These Newsreels. I'd Seen Real Stuff. That Kind Of Stuck In My Mind.

I Came To Terms With Living Mostly In A World Of Horror Pictures Or Genre Pictures.

I Came From A Very Strict Background. [so If You Want To Make A Scary Movie] If You Were Raised As A Fundamentalist, Just Pull All The Skeletons Out Of Your Closet.

You Can Look At What's Happened To America In The Last Years And Say A Lot Of People Were Asleep. A Lot Of People Were Not Staying Awake And Watching What Was Going On And Facing The Pain Of That And Dealing With It.i Don't Care If The Rest Of The Audience Doesn't Think Along Those Lines At All, Because The Audience Is A Huge Spectrum Of People, From People Who Are Introspective To People Who Just Want To Be Scared And Have Fun, And All The Points In Between.

I Like To Address The Fears Of My Culture. I Believe It`s Good To Face The Enemy, For The Enemy Is Fear.
