A Brief Chat with JIM ISAAC and ROBERT MAILER ANDERSON         For more info on ISAAC : IMDb

    Jim Isaac is better known as the guy who took Jason into space. That's right, he's the director of the love-it or hate-it JASON X movie,
    which I personally loved. He also directed the ridiculous John Woo meets werewolves-that-never-turn-into-werewolves movie
    Skinwalkers. Robert Mailer Anderson is a novelist and the co-writer of Jim's latest horror thriller Pig Hunt. I cornered these two at the
    west-coast premiere of Pig Hunt for a brief chat.

    Jose: Okay guys, this will be easy. What's your favorite horror movie?

    Jim Isaac: Oh, uh The Shinning.

    Robert Mailer Anderson: You know, I'm going to go with Straw Dogs, even though people don't think of that as a horror film. And I think
    there is a lot of Straw Dogs in this film [Pig Hunt], in the terms of the slow-burn and a stranger coming to a small town and then being
    fucked with.

    Jose: Favorite horror novel?

    Robert: USA TRILOGY by John Dos Passos is my favorite novel. That and maybe ABSALOM, ABSALOM! by Faulkner. That's easy for
    me.

    Jim: BOONVILLE! [Anderson's first novel]

    Jose: Okay last one, and this is even easier. Favorite horror filmmaker?

    Jim: Favorite horror director? Well, Cronenberg. Yeah, Cronenberg would have to be my guy. Mainly because I wouldn't actually
    consider him a horror director or in the horror genre but he's all about the story. For sure.

    Robert: Jim Isaac, clearly! And whatever horror forays Kurosawa or Orson Welles took in their own small way. I mean they aren't the
    standard horror guys. They're behind Jim Isaac.

    Jose: Alright guys, thank you very much and good luck with Pig Hunt. StrictlySplatter fans can go check out their website for more info
