Jane Goldman

I've always been drawn to spooky things, to the unusual, to things that are dark but in a friendly way.

Establish character - otherwise, it is difficult to connect with what is frightening.

You need to be invested in what happens. The characters are your conduit to the story. Many modern horror films are fun but not frightening because one has not connected with the characters.

It is hardly surprising that women concentrate on the way they look instead of what is in their minds since not much has been put in their minds to begin with.

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.

Acting is a masochistic form of exhibitionism. It is not quite the occupation of an adult.
