I've been obsessed with this kind of visual storytelling for quite a while, and I try to create material that allows me to explore it.

You've got to remind yourself all the time that you're being measured against the fashions of the day, and if your work truly has any kind of staying power, well, people will be talking about it in 20, 30 years.

Yeah, I had an idea to make a very scary movie, based on a kind of serial murderer that preys on tourists.

I've been sort of traveling around the country for ten years talking about independent features.

You know, I listen to contemporary music all the time

The biggest mistake in student films is that they are usually cast so badly, with friends and people the directors know. Actually you can cover a lot of bad direction with good acting

I do like directing other people's material.
