Usually you always see first cut is an extended version, because it's basically everything you shot, and you have that version and then you start cutting stuff out.

For me it sounds weird saying that the filmmakers respect the film. I don't imagine that there's other ways to make a film, but unfortunately there is.

If you think about it, a lot of great horror films have bad sequels just because the market demands you to make the other one right away.

I need to create a whole cinematic experience. I think that's what it takes to get the audience to the theater and justify seeing [a movie] on a big screen. You have to give them a cinematic experience.

What some of the early horror genre masters knew, and what I know, is that the audience are perverts, but in the best possible way.

You can make a film with a phone and a computer if you want, if you have the time. So it's a world that is saturated with films and all kind of stuff, so it's such a blessing to be able to make a film and people care, and even if they say that it's a bad idea, at least they care and they're talking about it.

I always say that I am a big fan of films but I am an even bigger fan of the filmmaking craft.
