- QuotesWhen I watch American horror films, what I'm going for is something we can't find in Japan. Bride of Chucky or Freddy vs. Jason. I love those two, and I really like Ronnie Yu's taste, because it's almost funny that I can laugh. Recently, all these horror movies are using those old horror heroes, they're starting to go for something funny, and I really like that movement. I actually couldn't watch any horror movies when I was little, and finally, I was able to see them when I was in junior high, and around that time, those Freddy type and Jason type [movies] were there. Since that was the first type of horror films that I got into, I really enjoy it still.
