The duo share their beliefs on the supernatural.
Summary One of the best trends in recent horror cinema continues with Family, which just premiered at South By Southwest. Written and directed by Ben Finkel in his feature debut, the horror drama centers on Johanna, an 11-year-old girl who has just moved across the country with her parents as her father undergoes medical treatment to deal with his declining condition.
Ben Finkel: Thank you so much. It started like eight years ago, when I started writing the film, and it's a personal film. It's based on my life. My dad had cancer while I was growing up, and he passed away when I was 14. It's just sort of taking that experience. I wanted to do a movie that just really captured the emotional reality of that experience in a fun sort of throwing way.
Cameron Dawson Gray: It definitely did. I remember it was very late into the audition process when I actually read the script. Before, I just had like three scenes. But I read it enough times that it definitely lost its edge just for me, just because I had read it so many times. But, no, it's very creepy. Good job.
Ben Finkel: Absolutely, I mean, this movie on paper is impossible. It's a really small, first-time film about a kid, starring a child, and then with animals and special effects and horror, and all these things. The thing that terrified me going into it was how do you find someone who can do a role that is sort of carrying the movie and really this monumental amount of emotion going through them? We looked at a lot of people who were really wonderful.
