- I'm not a fan of horror films per se. I am, if they have elements of reality in them. A good example is '28 Days Later'. I thought that was a great film. It felt real to me. Everything about it seemed authentic. That's where I come from in my storytelling. I want to believe the characters, that this situation is actually happening.
