If you’ve got people around you that are like, ‘Oh, you’re so good,’ this and that, it becomes unhealthy. My friends are like, ‘You look like a doofus.’ I’m like, ‘Thank you. Thank you for that.’ It keeps me grounded. Maika Monroe Read Quote
There are a lot of times where, filming ‘It Follows,’ I’m fighting against a guy dressed in a green suit for special effects, and I’m just like, ‘No. There’s no way this is going to be pulled off.’ Maika Monroe Read Quote
My dad taught me to kiteboard when I was 13, and around the same time, I happened to just fall into being an extra on a set and fell in love with acting and making movies. Maika Monroe Read Quote

I grew up really loving old-school horror such as ‘Halloween’ and ‘The Birds.’ Maika Monroe Read Quote
