Doing some Snow Angels press, David Gordon Green talked to MTV and Shock Til You Drop about doing a remake of Suspiria, which he says he's already written and is ready to direct. The project is still only tentative, but here's what he's got to say so far:
He also mentioned to STYD about a dream to start a direct to DVD genre label.
(to MTV) “It’s an opportunity to take all artistic excellence and be inspired by what was a low budget Italian 70’s gore movie. Where the art world meets the violent and supernatural. I would love to get every geek that loves torture porn and every old lady in line to see ‘Phantom of the Opera’ to come and have this insane experience.”
(to STYD) "These Italian producers came to me about it, wanting to do a pretty amazing, ambitious, artistic (version). It could be pretty wild."
"Give me a couple million bucks to go explore some schlock. I'd like to be the next Roger Corman. He would have his hand in freakin' 'Piranha' but also in Fellini. I like that idea. I would love to do some genre stuff but also some crazy intimate, no-budget movies. That's my problem. I only have one me, and I have a limited number of years before I die, and the biggest problem is that I like to do a lot of stuff that has nothing to do with movies and movies are very time-consuming, so you have to make choices, and that's really frustrating."
