I like the audience to feel unsafe, even if it was a scene in the daytime, which is normally code in horror movies for, “You’re safe, you can check your phone, you can make a cup of tea.” I also had movies playing constantly in the background of my office when we were prepping, movies that I wanted to try and emulate. Just before we started shooting, I got a bunch of different color cards and I put up all the different scares on the wall, and I had them in different colors for the different kind of scare, one that was coming out in the blue, one that was more of a jump scare, scares that were more about building tension and more of a kind of hide-and-seek dynamic. SAVAGE: I wanted to make sure that we weren’t just playing the same scare over and over. RAIMI: I thought that beyond your other films, you were playing with the rhythms that a director uses to manipulate an audience. I could feel that if I was in that crowd, they would all kind of relax a bit and then sometimes you hit us with a scare without any setup. I saw it on a home screen, but I could imagine that being in the crowd, there would’ve been people on the edge of their seat, brought to the peak of titillation. I saw the movie last night and it was really a great theatrical experience. I’m going to shut off the camera, so I can really focus on my notes and not be worrying about being on the show. I’m not a great interviewer, but I’ve got some questions. Brilliant camera work, great technique, fantastic performances from the actors. I saw it one and a half times to get ready. To talk about that sometimes scary process, Savage connected with one of his heroes, the horror maestro Sam Raimi. The movie marks Savage’s first with a major studio, which means bigger budgets and bigger scrutiny. After following that up with another found footage-style indie Dashcam, Savage is back with The Boogeyman, a Stephen King adaptation about a grieving family who may or may not have a demonic entity terrorizing them. In 2020, Rob Savage announced himself as a horror director to watch with Host, a low-budget shocker that was shot entirely on Zoom, and is still one of the only truly good movies about our pandemic lives. Watch the teaser above, and gird your loins to check out the movie when Spiral arrives in theaters on May 15.Director Rob Savage on the set of 20th Century Studios’ BOOGEYMAN. Lionsgate also released a stunning movie poster to go along with the dark trailer. In the final moments of the trailer, Zeke is seen handcuffed to a pipe, iconic hacksaw in hand as he seems to realize what it's going to take to get out alive. As Zeke and William delve deeper into the mystery, working in the shadow of Jackson's police veteran character, they fall prey to the sick machinations similar to the previous films. Set in the same world as the original movies and directed by Darren Lynn Bousman (who directed Saw II, Saw III, and Saw IV), the reboot's trailer highlights an odd spiral design that decorates every crime scene and is reminiscent of the original Jigsaw killer's mark. The ninth film in the gory series follows Detective Ezekiel "Zeke" Banks (Rock) and his rookie partner William Schenk ( The Handmaid's Tale actor Max Minghella) as they investigate a grisly murderer who is specifically targeting police officers. Jackson's reboot titled Spiral dropped on Feb. If you were ever worried that you'd never see another Saw film, rest easy horror fans: the franchise continues!
