Every film can be fun, even if it's a terror.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
To me, watching a movie is like going to an amusement park. My worst fear is making a film that people don't think is a good ride.
Like I said about Freaked, people tend to find these films, and I think that in the end the cool thing about a movie is that it can be sort of burnt temporarily, but then it's burnt into the fabric of your culture.
There is no reason why a serious film, one about life, can't be enjoyable, maybe even fun. Emotions can be very entertaining, you know. I try to use them generously in my films.
I've only seen a couple horror movies in my lifetime. I don't like the ones that make you scream out in terror.
Movies are usually difficult, often insane, constantly challenging and always strangely amusing to make.
I still like the run and gun action movies and how truly dangerous it can be to make these films.
There is something wonderful about turning up every day and knowing that not just the character but the whole movie kind of rests on your shoulders. And there's great satisfaction when you think it's going well and then real terror when you think it's not.
I've always had a problem showing fear on a film.
It's not scary to make a horror film because you get to pull back the curtain and see that none of it's real. When you're watching one, the terror bombards you.
All movies aren't fun; some are hard work. You try to do something and convey a set of emotions that have to do with some real life kind of stuff.
