Death is an absolute mystery. We are all vulnerable to it it's what makes life interesting and suspenseful.
I'm a guy who likes to watch something cool creepy and suspenseful and there is no show to watch as an adult that would scare me at for even four seconds.
As an editor I read Charlotte Rogan's amazing debut novel 'The Lifeboat ' when it was still in manuscript. I read it in one night and I really wanted my company to publish it but we lost it to another house. It's such a wonderful combination of beautiful writing and suspenseful storytelling.
When we were filming 'The Darkest Hour ' we didn't even know what the aliens were going to look like we didn't even have a graphic reference. So it was definitely a big challenge to sell those kind of extreme moments when you're just generating them from your own imagination.
