Here’s how the movies went from YA book series to shocking adult horror.
was a big one for me, mostly because I felt tonally it was very interesting to see how he had the camera attached to character point of view in that movie. I think it’s just a beautiful representation of this pure, unadulterated world made rotten and spoiled by these outside forces.You’re obviously not just emulating those older movies, but also updating them, especially in terms of who’s at the center, who lives, and who dies.
You did at least have the consolation that you were going to bring those actors back for the third movie, where they play the residents of the towns’ original settlement. Presumably you knew that when you cast them.That was part of the fun of the experiment too, that we would be able to see these characters as their actual ancestors, or their spiritual ancestors.
Because I was a teenager in the ’90s, filming the ’90s stuff was so fun for me. I grew up in a suburban town right outside of Cleveland, so the idea of being able to take these familiar places and rip them apart and cover them in blood and destroy them was just really appealing. I worked at a Super Kmart third shift one summer, from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m., and that experience working in a grocery store all night long really fed into the third act of the ’90s story.So they were all awesome.
By the way, that was the fucking funniest thing to film ever, because Benji [Flores Jr.], who plays Josh, could not saycorrectly. I think we have 15 takes of him just butchering that word over and over again. And then finally, I was like—and he was 16 at the time, now he’s 19—“Benji, do you know what this word means?” I had to explain. And then I had to explain what CK One was. Just really, really funny. But God, I loved how that shit smelled back then.
