You have to think of each stage of the movie and how it progresses, get into the state of mind of the character, and then match the camera to that, and keep making it tighter and tighter and crazier and crazier so people don't get bored. You know you cannot do a similar shot that you did at the beginning of the movie at the end.

When you make a thriller/horror, darkness is [your] friend, because it lets the imagination go wild and what not. So you always end up going into darkness.

If you do any thriller or horror movie a big part of the process is accounting for the cell phone.

I will shoot on film as long as they make it.

I think video is very useful, but it's very useful when you want a certain reality.

Camera's are cheap. It's the lenses that are expensive.

Obviously in the close-ups we bring extras around or we do it later, but them running in and the big shots, they don't know. They're just coming out.
