Jackson Rathbone compares Twilight to his movie Dread
Posted on 26. Mar, 2010 by Amanda31 in News
MTV talked to Jackson yesterday about his horror movie Dread (newly released on DVD, about a college student who makes a documentary about what people dread most in life). During the interview, Jackson compared the movie to The Twilight Saga:
Despite the fact that “Twilight” isn’t really a scary movie, Rathbone said there are similarities between “Twilight” and “Dread.” “One of the things I like is when different worlds collide. With the ‘Twilight’ films, you have the horror element of the vampire, but it becomes more of a romantic action film with the vampire falling in love with the girl. With ‘Dread’ it’s kind of the same thing. Clive Barker’s world is usually more of a mythical gothic world, but ‘Dread’ is more of a personalized psychological thriller instead of a horror. It has the horror elements, but it’s much more of a person-to-person drama.”
In the article, Jackson talks more about his thoughts on Dread, filming the movie, and his own worst fears – you can read it here.
