Gareth Evans : (8)

" All of my consumption of films when I was a child was on VHS. I saw films in the wrong aspect ratio, with mono sound, on a tiny, square television, with a terrible side speaker, and I was still totally immersed in films like ‘Evil Dead 2’ and ‘The Godfather.’ " - Gareth Evans

" I really like the ‘Bourne’ films but the editing style during the action scenes has been overdone. " - Gareth Evans

" I’ve watched so many shows where I’ve been blown away. " - Gareth Evans

" I tend to gravitate towards sitcoms more and documentaries. " - Gareth Evans

" When I was in Indonesia I had made a short horror film called ‘Safe Haven’ for the ‘V/H/S/2’ anthology with Timo, a friend of mine. When we did that it was a real fun experience, it was a taste of what it’s like to make something in the horror genre. " - Gareth Evans

" I grew up watching lots of different films, lots of different styles and genres from lots of different countries, so ‘Apostle’ is like a reflection of that eclectic taste I’ve had since childhood that has seen me consume as many horror films, thriller films, action films, and martial arts films. " - Gareth Evans

" On an analytical level, what’s so special about the Asian approach to action is that there is a time signature to the fighting. Punch, punch, kick, block, block, block, punch, punch, block. It’s like percussion. It’s got rhythm. " - Gareth Evans

" It sounds weird now, but I was doing web videos to teach people the Welsh language. " - Gareth Evans
