|
| How
long did your project take
to create, from conception
to final completion? |
| Total
time was 4 years. We took
our time writing it, and
then had several major interruptions
during the editing process. |
|
| Where
did your inspiration come
from? |
| A
friend wondered what it
would be like if you knew
you were evil. What would
you do about it?. |
|
| Is
Horror your primary creative
interest? |
| If
not #1, it's in the top
3.. |
|
| Can
you describe a typical day
in the process of creating
your film? |
| I
worked early mornings. Came
home, got a coffee to nurse
my hangover and then worked
on it for a few hours until
I had to go back to work
that night. |
|
| Who
do you consider to be the
greatest horror writer? |
| I'm
a sucker for pretty much
everything John Carpenter
has done. |
|
|
| Can
you recall the first horror
film that left a lasting
impression on you? |
| Poltergeist.
I think I still have flashbacks. |
|
| Who
do you consider to be the
greatest 'Masters of Horror'? |
| Karloff.
Vincent Price. Romero. Carpenter.
Raimi. I would have to include
Kubrick because of "the
Shining." And Danny
Boyle because of "28
Days Later." |
|
| How
many people comprised your
cast and crew? |
| Three
castmembers, thirty plus
in the crew.. |
|
| How
did you find your cast? |
| I
had worked with Damani before,
and Paul had auditioned
for me for my first film.
He wasn't really right for
that first film, but I liked
him. |
|
| What
was the most memorable moment
of the shoot? |
| After
we wrapped at 5am or so,
I got beers for the crew.
Then, someone broke out
some pot and people were
smoking. Then, one of the
PA's said, "Lucas,
call an ambulance,"
and then promply passed
out. I spent the next few
hours in the hospital with
the poor guy. |
|
| Did
you shoot on film or with
digital cameras? |
| We
shot on Super 16 film. |
|
| If
you could choose any famous
actors to work with on future
projects, who would they
be? |
| Christian
Bale would be great as a
Werewolf Hunter. Naomi Watts
would have to be in it,
too. |
