Horror is so often a 'thinkless' genre, sort of considered popcorn movies, but you really put a lot of, not just heart and soul, but a lot of physical energy into it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
No one pretty much tells me what kind of horror films to make.
I love horror movies because they're really fun. They tap into those wonderful primal emotions.
In horror, character development is often pushed aside in favor of the shock value. The best genre movies to me are movies like The Shining. You had a connection to the characters in that film.
I have been blessed to have been working since I was 11. I think horror is an underrated genre. When done really well like in 'The Ruins', it pays homage to some of the stuff I really love in the '70s and incurs some of that energy the fanbase really wants to see.
I don't understand it, but every horror film is huge. I would consider one, but I don't know if my heart would be in it.
Horror movies don't exist unless you go and see them, and people always will.
I see horror as part of legitimate film. I don't see it as an independent genre that has nothing to do with the rest of cinema.
Horror movies can be very interesting because they can deal with intangible subjects that are full of emotion.
Horror is about dreams and heightened states. It really is about taking away the logic on some level and getting right to the emotion of something.
Horror movies have never been my thing. I love psychological thrillers like 'The Exorcist', 'The Shining', even though they scare the living daylights out of me.
