I alwyas want to try and create new looks and new things, but equally scary, hopefully. But a new kind of style.

I love splashing the blood around.

At the end of the day, you're trying to make a certain film within a certain budget. Those rules never change.

I think as long as the standard of quality, the story-telling, film-making, acting etc. etc. remains consistent, then you've got a good change of making a decent anthology.

Why can't a girl just want to know stuff and not do stuff?
