Horror Filmmakers Talk About Asian Extreme Cinema

There are a lot more people at Comic-Con than the program schedule may lead you to believe. I caught up with two young horror filmmakers at this year's Con: Jacob Gentry, one of the directors on The Signal , and Adam Wingard who made Pop Skull . We started talking about filmmakers that had impressed or influenced us. Two names that came up: Takashi Miike and Kiyoshi Kurosawa . In fact Asian Extreme Cinema in general was something we all had in common and felt the need to discuss.
