It's just about having faith in what I wrote and following through on the plan and making sure I get the pieces the way that I need them. It's just about executing properly in production and then in post, you know, it's working [with] and trusting my editor, and then also playing the film for people and seeing how they react.

There's a difference between the way I see it and the character's interpretation of the events, so the rules within the film are the rules within the film.

I like too many different kinds of movies to only want to do one kind.

I love horror movies, but it's not the only thing I want to do.

I had the nightmare when I was like nine or ten or something, I always remembered pieces of that nightmare, the feeling from it. I've always wanted to make a horror film and so I always kept thinking about that nightmare.

My rule is to use whatever feels right at the moment and then break that rule if you want.
