McBride, who recently opened up about his worries to IndieWire.
?In this day and age,? he explained, ?Hollywood is tapping into so many beloved franchises that it seems like any time anything comes out there?s the contingency of people that are stoked, and the contingency of people that are f*cking pissed off and saying you ruined their childhood somehow.? McBride also took the opportunity to praise Green for his work on the project:
?I hope this thing tips more into the world of people liking it. I hope we don?t ruin too many childhoods. I think it will be interesting for people to see what David Green has pulled off as a director, going from things like Stronger and Pineapple Express and being able to segue into something that?s just straight, gritty horror. I?m always impressed with the different genre hats that David finds himself putting on, and I think people will be pleased with what he?s done here.?
