I don't think you need to spend $40 million to be creepy. The best horror films are the ones that are much less endowed.
I remember being scared to death of horror movies as a kid. Sometimes, I missed the whole movie because I was so scared and couldn't look.
I know what I miss as a cinemagoer is that balance of films that actually scare me; they're so few and far between.
The first time I ever saw a horror movie, I think I was in middle school, and we watched 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' and 'It' at a slumber party.
Some of the scariest movies I've seen are not considered horror movies, like 'Gone Girl.' That movie scared me. I can't watch it again.
My older sister showed me 'Hellraiser' when I was, like, 4, and 'Friday the 13th.' She kind of scarred me, but I like watching scary movies with people because you're together in this scary situation. It makes all that more fun.
The only movie that ever really scared me was The Exorcist,but even then, I was laughing part of the time.
I think horror movies are still - this can be said of all movies - but being with a group of people scared together is more and more something unusual and fun. Especially for kids who are going out less generally.
There are worse things than death. Many of them playing at a theater near you.
Horror stories have always worked on film. It's where they work. That's where vampires and ghosts and UFOs are real. They're not particularly real in life, but they're real on the screen. It's the communal aspect of movie-watching.
I know what I miss as a cinemagoer is that balance of films that actually scare me, they're so few and far between. I loved ghost stories, I love horror stories, I love all of that stuff, but I really yearn for something to actually frighten me.
'Bhoot' is a hold-on-to-your-seats horror film, while 'Darna Manaa Hai' is a hold-on-to-your-popcorn horror film.
I've seen a lot of movies that were great and scary, but not particularly fancy in their filmmaking or performance. And they're still scary, and I think a good horror movie should be scary above all things.
I think if a horror movie is really scary, you'll think about it for weeks, and there's something kind of fun about that - about our art, really.
All of the John Carpenter movies scared the crap out of me when I was a kid.
I was always interested in films that scar.
I am really easy to scare, and I don't enjoy watching spooky films.
Scary movies are one of my favorite movies to watch and I've loved scary movies since I was like three years old.
Because I am known in the horror genre now, I try and do at least one horror movie a year for my fans, my fans have been so good to me.
