I think I've only done one horror movie Psycho III. That was a walk in the park compared to a romantic comedy.
The latest horror to hit the U.S. looks to have been caused by people of Middle Eastern origin bearing Muslim names. Again shame. This fuels more hatred for a religion and a people who have nothing to do with these events.
I think all television has to be about relationships and I don't think horror for the sake of it can work unless you're able to ground it in some kind of relationship.
Words have no power to impress the mind without the exquisite horror of their reality.
France is not poetic she even feels in fact a congenital horror of poetry. Among the writers who use verse those whom she will always prefer are the most prosaic.
Nevertheless the passions whether violent or not should never be so expressed as to reach the point of causing disgust and music even in situations of the greatest horror should never be painful to the ear but should flatter and charm it and thereby always remain music.
The thing is there have been American movies that are similar to Solaris like Alien had a lot of things that are similar although it's also got the horror element.
No 'F/X 2' was a job. I enjoyed doing it but that was definitely a job. I wrote that I didn't direct it but 'Candyman' and the earlier horror movies I made I was completely into horror and suspense and always have been. It's informed everything I've done even the way scenes are shot in 'Kinsey and 'Gods and Monsters.'
At the time I came along Hollywood's idea of teen movies meant there had to be a lot of nudity usually involving boys in pursuit of sex and pretty gross overall. Either that or a horror movie. And the last thing Hollywood wanted in their teen movies was teenagers!
When I was a kid I had two great guilty pleasures. One was horror movies and the other was martial arts movies.
As a kid I liked the 'Halloween' movies and 'Nightmare On Elm Street' and all that kind of stuff. But as an adult I really don't watch much horror to be honest.
I'm terrible at horror movies by the way. I get scared so easily.
I am so happy because I want more people to like martial arts movie not just martial arts audience. Even martial arts can be used in comedy in drama in horror movies in different kinds of movies.
I think there's an instinct to make grotesque horror films that are purely carnal like the 'Saw' movies.
I've seen little pieces of 'Interview with a Vampire' when it was on TV but I kind of always go yuck! I don't watch R-rated movies so that really cuts down on a lot of the horror.
For horror movies color is reassuring because at least in older films it adds to the fakey-ness.
I like making sci-fi movies because I like watching sci-fi movies. I like watching horror. I like being in a horror movie. I'm a fan. My perspective's a little different just because I get to participate as well as spectate.
While a large segment of the art world has obsessed over a tiny number of stars and their prices an aesthetic shift has been occurring. It's not a movement - movements are more sure of themselves. It's a change of mood or expectation a desire for art to be more than showy effects big numbers and gamesmanship.
