I love just about every aspect of the filmmaking except acting. I would never be able to do that, but the rest I really enjoy.
Fede AlvarezA good horror movie - it doesn't matter how many comedy horror films there have been before. Doesn't matter how much you think it's going to be funny. A good horror movie will scare the hell out of you... the moment you sit down and you start being exposed to that story, it's going to freeze your blood.
Fede AlvarezHonestly, when you're writing you try to stay on the story, on the character's mind, trying to throw stuff at them. There is danger, and the scares have to kick in the right places with the drama. And you try not to do too much to try to create those moments. Those moments create themselves.
Fede AlvarezIf 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.
