Did you ever get scared while you were filming?
To a certain extent, I try to engulf myself in what I'm doing when I'm shooting, so I did get a little scared. But it's hard to be really scared if you look out and see 20 crewmembers staring back at you. But when you get into it and there's somebody wrestling you to the ground with a knife, it's scary if you put yourself in that headspace. If you blur the lines too much, it probably wouldn't be a good idea, but I think it's good to feel what you'd really be feeling. A lot people think that horror movies, especially teen horror movies, are cliché and not very intense, but for the actors working on it, it's really intense to have to play somebody that's getting chased or watching somebody die. So you try not to think about it too much -- you just try to feel what you would be feeling and then after the scene is done, leave it there and go about your life.
