To look for inspiration, we decided to look out for videos on Youtube such as director interviews. I came accross a mini series called 'Masters of horror' and watched interviews from Wes Craven and John Carpenter.
Craven- "I have found a lot of compelling stories just in newspapers... or books- The Hills have eyes, the people under the stairs, nightmare on elm street" Wes Craven takes inspiration from everyday life stories to make into his films.
The video Contains an interview with robert england- freddy krueger in nightmare on elm street.
Wes Cravens inspiration from personal experiences - when he was a kid he looked out of his window when his parents were out the house and saw a man covered in soot and scabs, and an old hat... this comes accross in freddy kruegars character. continuously looking at him.
He doesnt even like making horror films, hes just so good at it.
Craven believes that his films are based on all the horrible things in the world that people think arent true, but they actually are.
In another video- "Wes Craven on being a film-maker"- He explains how he makes films that are different and that the audience have never seen before.
