I feel like, with most filmmakers of my generation, I like the over-the-top stuff. I like to be wacky and really in your face.
Quote by -James Wan
Not many people remember this, but in the first 'Death Wish' film, Charles Bronson doesn't actually go after the people that hurt his family: he just goes after every punk. He just blows them all away.
Quote by -James Wan
A lot of these types of films - the vigilante or revenge drama - were so popular in the '70s because there was a feeling in the culture of loss of control.
Quote by -James Wan
I think, like most people, we are familiar with Aquaman. We grew up reading or watching this character on the peripheral. I was never so in depth with Aquaman as, let's say, I was with X-Men.
Quote by -James Wan
I like to think if something scares me, then there's a very good chance an audience will feel the same way. The key is creating scenarios that people can relate to.
Quote by -James Wan
'Insidious 2' is a direct continuation of the first movie. We literally pick up from where we left off at the end of the first film. And whereas the first movie is a twist on the haunted house genre, the second movie is a twist on the classic domestic thriller.
Quote by -James Wan
'Poltergeist' was the film that scarred me for life. I saw it at such a young age - 5 or 6 years old - and it has one of the creepiest doll sequences with the clown, and ever since then, I've just been fascinated by dolls.
Quote by -James Wan
I'm such an action movie junkie that as an action fan, because action scenes are so heightened, we could never really picture ourselves in that scene. So when you're watching an action movie, you experience an action movie more outside of the aquarium: you know you're out of the aquarium looking in at all the swimming fish that are in there.
Quote by -James Wan
Having such a diverse cast and crew is what makes the 'Fast & Furious' films so unique to all the other studio tent pole films that just have a very singular look to them.
Quote by -James Wan
The size of the budget doesn't make that much of a difference because the kind of issues I have on a low budget film I I have on a big budget film as well, but they're just much bigger.
Quote by -James Wan
If you care about the characters, then whatever scary thing happens to them, you feel it even more.
Quote by -James Wan
'Poltergeist' was really the film that really scarred but fascinated me with puppets and dolls, clowns, and stuff like that. I've always been afraid of clowns, and then my fear of puppets came around, and 'Poltergeist' was the perfect combination to scare me with a clown doll.
Quote by -James Wan
If I have free time, I want to go to the beach, walk around a shopping mall, go grocery shopping. Live a little bit of life.
Quote by -James Wan
'The Exorcist' is one of the finest movies ever made, and it just so happens to be a scary movie.
Quote by -James Wan
Isn't it crazy to think that we've explored space more than we have explored the depths of our ocean? That just fires up my imagination about potential sea monsters and cool creatures, that kind of stuff.
Quote by -James Wan
For me, what usually makes a horror sequence scary is the journey not the destination.
Quote by -James Wan
If you don't do the suspense correctly, then your jump scares are not going to work.
