If you think about it, you can have the best CGI, but you can always tell that it is CGI. Your brain can spot that is not real even though you think it looks cool. Your brain knows the truth, so you don’t jump and you don’t scream. It was very important for me to expose the audience to real elements. Fede Alvarez Read Quote

A good horror movie – it doesn’t matter how many comedy horror films there have been before. Doesn’t matter how much you think it’s going to be funny.

I watched ‘Evil Dead’ when I was 12. I was going through all the horror I could grab. I remember going to the video store and asking for something ‘real.’ And the guy gave me the ‘Evil Dead’ VHS. When you’re 12, you’re not supposed to see that. Fede Alvarez Read Quote
I love just about every aspect of the filmmaking except acting. I would never be able to do that, but the rest I really enjoy. Fede Alvarez Read Quote
A good story will keep you wondering about what’s happening, what’s going on, where does this go? Now it’s going to go that way, now it’s going to go that way. It has to do that. If it’s predictable, it’s just boring. Fede Alvarez Read Quote
