I always thought what if you took a myth of childhood like the tooth fairy and made it a central scary thing. We did it on Hellboy and we did it on 'Don't be afraid of the dark'.

At some point, in order to gain his identity, the kid goes "I'm not my dad" or "I'm not my mom."

I think video games are going to completely take over storytelling in our society. Video games are not a fad.

I think that during the shoot, you should never be there, unless something goes really wrong and as producer, you're responsible. The sign you did your job right is if you are not there.

I started when I was eight, doing super 8 films

I thought the tooth fairy was a very creepy concept as a kid. "Put your tooth under the pillow." I was like "Why does someone want my teeth?".

When you work with a great director, you can have a great partnership.
