Always have been. I love horror films that build tension and suspense and keep you on the edge of your seat. I’m not a fan of torture. I can’t stand it. I’m not a fan of gratuitous gore. When I watch a horror film, or any film for that matter, I want to see a strong story with strong characters. When you connect with the characters and get lost in a story that keeps you guessing, you want them to survive that much more. In my opinion, gore works when it’s part of the story. John Carpenter’s The Thing is a perfect example of strong characters, a suspenseful story, and incredible effects and gore. It’s a perfect film. Some of the wilderness areas around Sussex County where you grew up could make for great horror films. Have you ever shot around there? I have. I shot my last film, Disorder, in Blairstown and the NJ side of the Delaware River out by Millbrook Village. We also shot Film Reviews Giveaways News & Features Movie Posters and much more!
