Thirst: Director Park Chan-wook at the SDCC '09 "During this film, it’s the story about the process of moral downfall for the central characters. I have put them in this space, there it is very closed up and confined. In order to show how they live and how their downfall takes place, he needed to put them in this confined space so I could better follow the changed they go through. In doing this of course you need to be careful and follow what they do very carefully as well. To do that is through visuals and sounds bring out some of these details." By: MrDisgusting
The Collector: Marcus Dunstan and Patrick Melton "Seven seconds is nothing. At the end of the day, this is the hardest horror movie you're going to see in the theaters this year. I know Halloween II is going to be pretty brutal, because Rob does a brutal movie. But with that you get the heightened reality as well, because you expect Michael Myers to do certain things.""

Pictures has given us the thumbs up to share with you guys a small preview piece from our visit to the set of A Nightmare on Elm Street, which shot on locations in both Chicago and Indiana over the past few months. Beyaond the break you'll get first word from your new Freddy Krueger, Jackie Earle Haley, as we inspect the new "look" of Freddy. Elm Street is slated for release on April 16, 2010. Watch for our massive set reports later this year." By: MrDisgusting
The Hole: Exclusive On Set Interview with Joe Dante! "As a filmmaker, you want to broaden the range of what you do and not revisit the same old tricks of what you’ve done before. You could easily just keep cranking out pictures that draw on your previous successes, but that’s not interesting for me. I’ve already done that. You look at all my fantasy horror pictures, there are a lot of recurring elements. Kids, the fantasy... " By: Jeff Otto
The Hole: B-D Takes a Visit to the Set "Joe Dante’s THE HOLE is the latest 3-D movie on the horizon, but in this case, the process feels perfectly suited to the plot line. When Dane (Chris Massoglia) and his younger brother Nathan (Lucas Gamble), discover a gaping hole in the basement of their new home, they do what any two boys would do: They step in and check it out. Along with the fetching girl next door Julie (Haley Bennett), the trio discover that the hole unlocks the worst fears and nightmares of anyone who enters." By: Jeff Otto
Zombieland: Full Set Visit Report! "Bloody-Disgusting spent April Fool’s Day, 2009, visiting Zombieland set in a remote Georgia town called Rutledge, about 50 miles southeast of Atlanta. The state has been offering a 30 percent tax break for film production, which helped lure to the moderate-sized Zombieland to the state. The day’s shoot involves a roadside Indian trading post set somewhere between Arizona and New Mexico, where our heroes have stopped off for a little break on their journey to see see if they might find anything of use. Some turquoise jewelry or an Indian headdress, perhaps?" By: Jeff Otto
Zombieland Set Report: Harrelson, Stone and Eisenberg "It's just been really fun," Emma Stone tells press. "I got to learn how to shoot a pump shotgun and load it. It's been exciting. The script is just completely different from anything I've ever read. This is just a real reaction in a comedy sense of what these people would do if zombies took over the world. I just love this girl just because it's different from anything I've gotten to do. It's been a bigger challenge than I thought it would be, in a good way." By: Jeff Otto
Burning Bright: Director Carlos Brooks "Not once I realized the two are really the same idea -- just unbridled Nature. Suddenly then you’re not talking about good and evil. It’s actually more fearsome than that. Because you can’t read it. I think that’s why the hockey mask is such a classic horror image -- that total absence of emotional cues -- it’s just a force coming at you with a Benihana knife." By: MrDisgusting
Piranha 3D: Star Paul Scheer "Jerry O'Connell and I play guys from a company called WILD, WILD GIRLS. A Joe Francis-esque type of company that comes to Lake Victoria (AKA Havasu) to shoot some Spring Break "Videos". I obviously took the part very seriously. I watched hours of Girl Gone Wild videos, I had to do intense research about how to pour the proper body shots, it was hard work." By: MrDisgusting
Moon: Director Duncan Jones & Star Sam Rockwell "There was an emotional chord to it in that this was a guy who wanted to get home. So for Sam 1, that was driving everything for him. And when Sam 2 turns up on the scene, he’s literally just starting his three-year contract to be out there. All of the sudden you get that conflict, that little difference in personality." By: David Harley
Pin (1988): Director Sandor Stern "In 2001, Pin was released on DVD and, by chance, found its way into my hands, satisfyingly ending my laborious quest. I recently had the chance to talk with director Sandor Stern about his cult thriller." By: David Harley
Saw VI: Cast and Crew Talk New Traps, Latest Game! "People love a good yarn. When I hear people talk, the visual rollercoaster is one thing that brings them into that. Also, the traps. They're interactive. Everyone thinks of what they would have done. When things are interactive, you have the audience. They'll go away and talk about it and argue." By: Mike Pereira
Frozen: Stars Shawn Ashmore and Emma Bell "The hardest thing for us at the beginning was getting used to the cold and also sitting up in the lift for six hour periods. Then we'd have half an hour off [for lunch] to warm up and stretch our legs and then another six hours before we wrapped." By: Jeff Otto
H2 Set Visit and Exclusive Interview with Rob Zombie "Bloody-Disgusting spent an evening on the set of Rob Zombie's H2 back at the end of March as the production was nearing its finish on day 27 of 33. It was a rainy, chilly night in rural Newborn Georgia where Zombie and crew were shooting a scene at Sheriff Brackett's (Brad Dourif) house." By: Jeff Otto
The Crazies: Director Breck Eisner "My theory is they should have something they couldn’t do the first time around that you could do differently. It’s not like you’re just redoing PSYCHO or redoing a perfect film. Romero obviously had limitations in terms of the budget." By: Jeff Otto
The Crazies: Star Radha Mitchell "The conceit of the story is that’s there’s been this situation where a chemical weapon has been accidentally dumped into the water supply system. So this town has been infected, so everyone is sort of victimized by that situation. And the government officials is trying to suppress that information and also keep the situation contained." By: Jeff Otto
The Crazies: Almost Human FX's Rob Hall "It's definitely not slow and sluggish and it's not like the rage guys in 28 DAYS LATER. It's somewhere kind of in-between. Sometimes they are a full threat and they come after you with guns, but what’s cool about them is they retain a lot of the knowledge that the host had before." By: Jeff Otto
Frozen: Writer/Director Adam Green "Hopefully FROZEN will leave a mark on you and send you home wondering what you would do and how you would survive if it ever happened to you. If you're hoping for jokes, jump scares, and blood geysers, this isn't that movie. But if you want suspense, tension, and 'horror for your brain', this will deliver." By: MrDisgusting
Orphan: Director Jaume Collet-Serra “It’s hard [to talk about]…the movie has a twist. The whole trailer and campaign are designed to tell people this is not your typical kid movie and there is something else to it. But that’s as far as I can go. There is more to it, there is a twist, anything else I would be giving you clues,” he jokes." By: MrDisgusting
Wrong Turn 3: Director Declan O'Brien "CYCLOPS was like 338 CG shots, which I did with motion capture, very heavily CG based. I wanted to do WRONG TURN 3 more old school. It was a luxury to do more practical effects…we had a bit more money and time to do it." By: MrDisgusting
Drag Me to Hell: On Set Interview with Sam Raimi "I'm just trying to make a horror movie that people go to, they laugh at, they think is suspenseful," says Raimi. "[I want them to] get excited about in the action or monster sequences and have those types of fun house reactions." By: Jeff Otto
Offspring: Author/Writer Jack Ketchum "With Offspring I actually wrote the screenplay as well, so I had a direct influence in so many ways. I’m pretty lucky – so far I’m four for four with my films. I’ve really enjoyed how all four of them have turned out." By: Closer To Death
Grace: Writer Director Paul Solet "I really believe in the horror community. We have unity here like nowhere else. If you look at the comedy scene, those guys are trying to one-up each other with jokes. We always have each other’s backs. Adam Green is a perfect example. It really is our voice. If the sites get behind us and other fans, like me, talk about it, that’s great." By: Tex Massacre
The Haunting in Connecticut: Director Peter Cornwell "Anything can happen so it gives you the freedom to come up with something absolutely crazy. The rules aren’t clearly defined and that’s what makes it scary - the fear of the unknown. It gives you a lot of interesting ways to scare the audience. It’s a lot of fun." By: David Harley
The Last House on the Left (2009): Producer Wes Craven " We had basically realized that we had ownership of the property again; after 30 years the rights came back to us: Sean Cunningham and myself. So we just kind of explored who would be interested, if anyone, and there WAS immediate interest, so we set off to make it." By: BC
Red Sands: Writer Simon Barrett "I remember hearing about all these ancient relics getting destroyed, and kind of pondering how we’d invaded, like, this area of the world where all these major religions sprang from, with very little awareness of that region’s culture, or its history. So I kind of thought it was an interesting concept to use these pre-Islamic Arabic legends to write basically a haunted house movie..." By: MrDisgusting
Red Sands : Director Alex Turner "I think compromise is a certainty if you have a budget of 1.5 million and you are shooting a genre film with over two hundred visual effects. Even more so when your visual effects house drops the ball and doesn’t finish the film….but that’s another story." By: MrDisgusting
Sorority Row: A Visit to the Set Part 1 "The one thing that gets me really excited about the remake cycle we're in right now is that Hollywood is starting to remake films I never really liked in the first place. It just makes more sense to go back and redo properties that weren't as good as they could have been, since there's room for improvement." By: David Harley
His Name Was Jason: Director Daniel Farrands "My editor and I have just been scavenging the lowest dregs of the Paramount vaults to find the things that fans want to see. We've have limited success with some things, but we're working on it and believe me, there's so much passion behind it. We're doing our best to put something out that will hopefully make the fans more satisfied than they were with the previous versions that Paramount put out." By: BC
