Hopefully, one day, I will have the clout to do it. Not because I want to do gore for gore’s sake, but because it is a very adult movie, and the consequences of things are really deep and disturbing. And what I would love with MOUNTAINS is for it to have all the luster and the scope of a tentpole horror movie, but be R-rated. Movies that came not as a B-movie product of a studio, but as an A, tentpole, big release, high-end production like THE EXORCIST, and so on and so forth. What I love about tentpole horror – which is not done much anymore, if at all – is that there was a time when you could see something like ALIEN or THE SHINING or THE THING. It’s a hard R-rated, big production tentpole in the genre of horror. It’s just that when you see something that somebody else is doing that you would never do, you admire it, you know? But, no, MOUNTAINS is exactly the movie I would like to do it would push buttons, and it’s extreme in many areas. I have exactly the set of tools that I need to be brave on MOUNTAINS. Is this something that you’re kind of working on? Del Toro: No, no, no. That’s something that strikes me that will be very necessary to mount AT THE MOUNTAINS OF MADNESS. Q: You’re saying that you know you need to get a little braver, you’re trying to work up your bravery.
