"A Quiet Place" Was Influenced by Steven Spielberg & Jaws
A Quiet Place has received rave reviews so far. The upcoming film stars John Krasinski & Emily Blunt. Krasinski also directed the film and co-wrote its script.
Cinema Blend recently interviewed the horror film’s producers Andrew Form and Brad Fuller. Form shared with Cinema Blend the impact Steven Spielberg and Jaws had on the tension filled project.
"Creatively, John was always talking about Jaws. From the first conversation we’ve ever had about the movie, he was referencing that film. We’ve all learned that, Brad and I have worked on a lot of these genre films, the less you show the scarier. We really talked about when do you show the creature? How much here or there? That scene in the cornfield with Reagan, the daughter, that scene could’ve been two minutes longer with the two of them. It was really talked about, how much to show."
We will be able to see for ourselves how the film borrowed from Jaws when A Quiet Place opens this Friday.
