I Like Movies Like 'mother's Day', Where

I Think In A Post-9/11 World, With The Images Coming Back From Iraq, Everybody Knows More And More People Who Are Going Over There... The Images On The Youtube Phenomenon Where The Violence Is So Immediate. Direct People Need Something Stronger To Respond To. I Think That There's Definitely A Wave Of Directors - Who Are Labelled The Splat Pack - Who Really, Really Care About Making Great Scary Movies.

If I Don't Come Home Covered Head To Toe In Fake Blood Then I Haven't Done My Job As A Horror Director.

You Do Need An Outlet To Release All Of Those Fears. You Build It Up And Then, When You Go To A Movie Theater, It's The Last Place That It's Socially Acceptable To Be Terrified. It's Saying That, For The Next 90 Minutes, You're Allowed To Be Afraid And You're Not A Coward For Feeling That Way.

If You Are Having Fun On The Set, You Are Not Getting Things Done.

I Want People To See My Name On A Movie, Pay Money And Know They're Going To Be Entertained For 90 Minutes.
