Remy – Spike Jonze
Spike Jonze is a directorial God. He really is. The guy has such a unique vision and anything he lends that vision to comes away feeling like it has some special bit of magic injected into it. Maybe some of you think he is too quirky to do a horror film, but let me tell you, his last two movies hint at a greatness that would be if he took to the horror genre just once.
First of all, Where The Wild Things Are. The settings, the creatures, everything about it was like taking a journey somewhere else. Think of Spike doing a Pan’s Labyrinth type movie? There is no doubt in my mind he could pull that off.
Now think about the movie Her. There were moments when I think the audience wondered what would happen if that scenario played out in real life – and suddenly went all Glenn Close. Seriously, how scary could that be? Suddenly, you cannot get your credit cards and your name is getting sullied everywhere. Jonze could definitely do some cool things with the science fiction genre as well.
Or even just some weird, surrealist horror like David Lynch? If anyone could do it, Spike Jonze could.
So what are you waiting for, Spike? Scare us!
