00:00I'm a big fan of dubbed Italian horror films.
00:20It was really great to come back to this world.
00:22I don't usually like to do that kind of a thing,
00:25but I just recall the experience of making the film
00:29and the sort of energy and the sort of improv
00:33and sort of having sets and puppets and physical effects.
00:37And, you know, you get kind of lost in the big Hollywood structure,
00:41and so for me it was kind of going back into making stuff
00:44the way I like doing it, you know, and working with people that I love
00:48and both originals and the new cast and everything.
00:52And so for me, and trying to do it in the same spirit
00:56that we did the first one, shoot it quickly, you know, shoot it,
01:00you know, make stuff up every day on a daily basis,
01:03and you don't get to do that with a lot of movies.
01:06It was important for me that this was a very personal movie
01:09in terms of everything, you know, my feelings about Lydia
01:12and what happens to people as you get older
01:14and the life choices you make for good and for bad
01:18and the relationships that you have, kids, whatever.
01:21And so everything, you know, you know, like Soul Train,
01:26because I used to love watching Soul Train as a child.
01:29And even things on the set, because you're making up a world,
01:33everything on the set has to have some kind of meaning to it.
01:36So for me, I guess the whole thing is filled with those kinds of things.
01:46A lot of them are in there.
01:48I'm a big fan of, like, dubbed Italian horror films,
01:53and, you know, in fact, most people should say,
01:56oh, I prefer the original language, but, you know, for me,
01:59I grew up on, you know, Japanese, Italian, Mexican horror films
02:04dubbed into English that became like a weird poetry to me.
02:08And, you know, things like Soul Train and just everything.
02:11I mean, I truly kind of put, and that's why we wanted to go back
02:15and shoot in the original location.
02:18You know, everything, even seeing the cast,
02:21my first day when I saw Winona and Catherine on the set,
02:24I got very emotional, you know.
02:26And so having that kind of emotion when you're making something
02:29is a very powerful artistic tool.
