When you do a slasher film, you find yourself repeating the same kind of scene, then it becomes not very challenging and not very interesting.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The slasher film is such a neat, self-contained genre.
I'm not a big slasher film fan.
I was never a big fan of horror. I got into it making these films, but I don't ever see myself doing slasher movies. The kind of horror film I like is 'The Shining.' I don't really like slashers, but I love thrillers with tension.
All these horror movies are slasher film now. I like them, they're fun, but they wink at the audience and you're really not terrified through the movie.
Film can be exciting, but more often, it's tedious.
I found it to be more challenging to be in a huge effects movie, because a lot of the things aren't there. You have to trust the director and react to nothing.
The challenge, really, on any new film is to try to avoid that and achieve a few moments that aren't cliche.
For a director, the most challenging scenes are the dialogue scenes.
I just think that the collective experience of going to see a film is something you can't recreate.
Movies are usually difficult, often insane, constantly challenging and always strangely amusing to make.
