- Mother
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I really enjoy the company of my kids... I'm not one of those people who goes 'Yeah, my kids are my mates', that's a dreadful kind of mother, but I'm fortunate that there are times that they do want me around, and I feel lucky that they let me into their world.
- Jealousy
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've yet to meet a bitter teenager. Bitterness, jealousy and jadedness, I think, are the most unattractive qualities in a person, and unfortunately they do seem to come with age.

Normally with film, it's normal for the screenwriter to never be seen again after finishing until the premiere.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It's really weird because my house is very ornate, but my writing lair is very, very blank. It's white, the furniture is white. It gives me nothing to look at, so I just have to concentrate!
- Nothing
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm not too easily distracted now I've had practice, but I write with nothing to look at. I used to rent an office that just had a view of a wall!
- Never
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I don't tend to be a nitpicker when I'm watching movies, so as long as something is true to the spirit of the original, that's very much what we got for. You try to never do something that the original author wouldn't have done themselves.
- Fun
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
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.
- Arresting
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Vengeance is the act of turning anger in on yourself. On the surface it may be directed at someone else, but it is a surefire recipe for arresting emotional recovery.
- Business
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Japanese horror films take the business of being frightening seriously. There is no attempt at postmodernism or humour. They are incredibly melancholy, with a strong emotional core, while remaining absolutely terrifying.
- Connect

- Nov 07, 2020
Establish character - otherwise, it is difficult to connect with what is frightening.
- Books

A friend of mine, Neil Gaiman, had the film rights to his book 'Stardust' bought by producer Matthew Vaughn and suggested I adapt it for the screen.

'Stardust' ended up being my first film in 2007.
- See
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
If you're writing a novel, you can afford to see where the spirit takes you, but in terms of structure and engineering with a screenplay, you have to be quite pragmatic; otherwise, it will run away from you.
- Influence
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've always loved science fiction, fantasy, manga, comic books; so I guess, to some degree, those things influence my personal idea of what looks nice, which definitely isn't everyone else's.

People's intolerance, I find puzzling.

- Audience Member

- Nov 07, 2020
There is always a reverence issue, and I'm no different from any audience member that if someone's adapting a book or comic that I like, I really don't want them to screw it up.
- Challenge

- Nov 07, 2020
I really enjoy the challenge of adapting.

All English people have a fascination with Jack the Ripper. I don't know why, because it's so dreadful, but such a strange, endearing part of our culture. Morbid fascination sums it up.
- Far

- Nov 07, 2020
I know what I miss as a cinemagoer is that balance of films that actually scare me; they're so few and far between.
- Good
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I loved ghost stories. I love horror stories. I love all of that stuff, but I really yearn for something to actually frighten me. It's more of a yearning for that than something that has to necessarily be cerebral or sophisticated. Good storytelling and something that actually frightens you.
