Tetragrammaton

you have to remember that it's all based on Red Riding Hood, you see.

Nothing has changed since Red Riding Hood.

So what they're frightened of today are exactly the same things they were frightened of yesterday.

Because this, should we call it, this

fright complex is rooted in every individual. Do you think women and men are frightened by

different things in movies? Oh, I would say so, yes. I would definitely say that, after all, women are frightened by a mouse.

You don't see men jumping on chairs and screaming.

So there are definitely different things.

Do you aim to frighten men or women?

Women, because 80% of the audience in the cinema are women.

Because you see, even if the house is 50-50, half-men, half-women,

a good percentage of the men has said to his girl,

being on the make, of course, what do you want to see, dear?

So that's where her influence comes as well. So men have very little to do with the choice of the film.

Are American and European audiences frightened by different things?

I would say no.

You've got to remember the American audience is the global audience.

As I once reminded an Englishman, I said, you don't understand America because you think they are

Americans, but they're not.
