Everyone Is So Terrified Of Being Labeled

All The Copycat Movies Were Always Pg-13 And People Said: "nobody Wants Violence."

Women Became Almost Our Bigger Audience. Teenage Girls Went Crazy For My Movie. I Saw It. I Went To Theatres All Over And There Were Gangs Of Girls Going And Screaming. There Were Kids That Were 10 Or 11 Years Old When September 11 Happened. They've Been Told For Years They're Going To Get Killed, They're Going To Get Blown Up. Every Time You Go On An Airplane, X-ray Your Shoes Because You're Going To Get Blown Up. Terror Alert Orange, Don't Travel. So, People Have A Reaction And They Want To Scream. Horror Movies Have Become The New Date Movie.

Imagine Trying To Relive Your Worst Break-up, Your Worst Fight, The Most Painful Death Of A Loved One, And Just Really Relive It Step By Step, And Bring It Up And Apply It To The Scene You're In.

I Think That Horror Films Have A Very Direct Relationship To The Time In Which They're Made. The Films That Really Strike A Film With The Public Are Very Often Reflecting Something That Everyone, Consciously Or Unconsciously Feeling - Atomic Age, Post 9-11, Post Iraq War; It's Hard To Predict What People Are Going To Be Afraid Of.

When I Go See An R-rated Horror Movie, I Want Lots Of Violence.
