Matt Reeves's quotes
- It's the idea that anticipation is as scary as anything in a movie could be. People's imagination is the most effective tool in creating terror or dread.
- I never would have guessed I would be making science fiction and horror films.
- People's imagination is the most effective tool in creating terror or dread.
- When you think of the The Exorcist (1973) you think of Linda Blair and pea soup and all this madness, but really if you look at the first half of that film, the stuff between her and Ellen Burstyn is so naturalistic and so real.
- There's tremendous shame with being bullied. I think there's a level at which you think that there's a reason that you're being singled out, that you're being chosen.
- It's funny, people don't think of Cloverfield (2008) as being restrained because it's a handycam movie, but the only reason it's a handycam movie is because that was supposed to be the reality of the situation.
- In a weird way, if you look at all the 'Apes' movies, they all seem like different stories in the same universe. Beneath the Planet of the Apes (1970) is definitely a continuation, but the other ones jump all around chronologically.
- I was obsessed with movies, and it ended up being the tool with which I could make friends. Because I was too painfully shy in other circumstances, I would say, 'Hey, do you want to make a movie?' And that's how I made friends, and it was also my escape.
- I'm always looking for a reason to say no when I'm approached about a big studio tentpole because your fear is will you be consumed into the anonymous machine, and it will suck out any specificity and point of view that you might hope to express.
- I thought this was the most incredible opportunity. Because 'Planet Of The Apes,' aside from the fantasy element of talking apes, is such an amazing franchise, because under the surface of that genre, you're actually looking at human nature.
- Avatar (2009) was incredible and totally groundbreaking, but it wasn't about utter realism. It had a great mythic fantasy to it, but the characters don't seem totally photo-real, as amazing as they are.
- Really interesting genre films, especially monster movies, evoke the fears of the times intentionally.
- With all my movies, what I try to do in an almost Hitchcockian sense is use the camera, and use the storytelling, so that you become the character, and you emphasize with that point-of-view.
