You can only go by the instinct that you have.
From James Wan
It's pretty scary to know how quickly time flies.
For me and my films, I want my audience to experience cinema in its full glory. It's not just visual, it's audio as well. It's emotional, and I want you to be engaged with not just the scene but with the characters.
Whether it's a popcorn movie or some really intellectual sociopolitical movie, I think to some degree they're all influenced by the social climate that we're living in.
It's good to be finally able to afford food for a change. It's good to move on from potatoes and tin soup.
For me, the sound design and the musical score is a big part of what makes scary movies work.
We all live in some kind of home, so the idea that our home could be invested with a supernatural entity is kind of frightening, I think.
I think you cannot be too complacent. I think that's dangerous, and you cannot take anything for granted.
'Poltergeist' was the film that scarred me for life. I saw it at such a young age - 5 or 6 years old - and it has one of the creepiest doll sequences with the clown, and ever since then, I've just been fascinated by dolls.
I am a student of cinema, and I love filmmaking of all kinds.
