Moreover, topping the last thrill is intrinsically hard. "There's nothing you can do to a human being on screen that is taboo anymore," says Oscar-winning writer-producer Akiva Goldsman. "Over and over again, people are breaking the boundaries of the body, hurting people, chopping people up, ravaging people…. For things to be truly scary, we're going to have to find new boundaries to tread on."

Most important piece in that article.
New Boundaries to thread on. That is the way forward. Think about things that scare you in real life. Horror doesn't have to be about ghosts, ghouls, zombies, monsters or aliens. Everyday events can be very frightening. Its about packaging them into a horror film product. Time to stop reinventing old shit and get out there and take different themes and exaggerate their scariness. As a debut Director this year, that what Im doing.
