To me, nothing beats McDonalds and a scary movie at home.

Those films that really speak to the primal fear that we, as human beings, have about the unknown have always intrigued me. That’s the really scary thing, not the slasher, macabre movies. It’s the ones that deal with the inner fear: the unknown realms and the mysticisms that are scary.
I’m a character and relationship guy, and even with the ‘Saw’ films, it’s special-effects people’s jobs to create these scary things. It’s not my job. My job is to bring some sense of humanity to the character, no matter how evil he may be. The script is going to take me there.
