This is what I do for fun - brainstorm about monsters!

There's just something wonderful about getting a small group of people together in an isolated location, and there's something about cabins themselves that imply both horror and fun. When you go to a cabin, you're usually going to have a good time.

The horror genre gets you in touch with our primal instincts as a people more than any other genre I can think of. It gives you this chance to sort of reflect on who we are and look at the sort of uglier side that we don't always look at, and have fun with that very thing.

A movie that's about other horror movies isn't interesting. A movie about who we are, is.

I've always said I'm less interested in twists as I am about escalation.

When Steven Spielberg comes to you and says, 'Hey do you want to write a movie about robots?' You just say yes.
