On this day in Horror History, James Wan was born. Wan is considered to be one of the founding “Splat Pack” film-makers; a group of directors famed for their brutal and stylistic approach to horror in the last decade. With such credits as the SAW (2004), Dead Silence (2007), and Insidious (2010), the writing and directorial talent of James Wan has become a vision of the new depths of the eloquently grotesque future of the horror genre.
“We think craft is important, and the irony has always been that horror may be disregarded by critics, but often they are the best-made movies you're going to find in terms of craft. You can't scare people if they see the seams.” –James Wan
My Personal Thoughts: I hate "Saw" i find it disgusting and tasteless. Dead Silence was ok to say the least. and i have yet to see "Insidious" but i shall do that soon. i hear lots of good things about it.
