Your upcoming movie A Guidebook to Killing Your Ex
- in a few
words, what is it about?
A Guidebook to Killing Your Ex
is about a lonely man who is planning to
kill his ex-girlfriend within 72 hours, but soon discovers that things are
not as easy as he previously imagined. What were your sources of
inspiration when writing A Guidebook to Killing Your Ex? Mainly,
the script is based on several experiences including some of my friends
and acquaintances as well as my own experiences. I heard several powerful
stories about how relationships ended and started to write the story of
John Doe. A
concept like A Guidebook to Killing Your Ex
seems to suggest quite
a bit of comedy - am I at all right in this assumption, and if so, what
can you tell us about the movie's brand of humour? It will
be dark as midnight on a moonless night, I can guarantee that. With
comedy covered, what can you tell us about your approach to suspense and
horror in A Guidebook to Killing Your Ex? Not only
will the humour be dark but also the whole story, with a lot of suspense
and horror as the protagonist is ready to do everything to achieve his
goals. Do talk
about the intended over-all look and feel of your movie for a bit! It
will be a found-footage movie - the protagonist documents and uploads
every steps to the internet, because he wants other people to learn about
his diary. I would like people not to realize if they witness a real
revenge or something that was previously written and directed. It will be
a real challenge!
Anything
you can tell us about your projected key cast yet, and why exactly these
people? All of them are fantastic and professional actors,
that's why I chose them. I saw Balázs Szitás in Open Grave (2013,
directed by Gonzalo López-Gallego, starring Sharlto Copley) and he was
more than fascinating, I loved his parts. I cast Kata Sarbó to play the Ex after one audition. I did a second one just to see what she could do
with a particular scene. Tamás Szilágyi was cast as the Extra and a real
talented actress Stefánia Molnár will debute in this film. Working with
them makes me very excited. As far as I know, your film's still in
pre-production - so what's the schedule, and any idea when the film might
be released onto the general public yet (though I do know it's probably
waaay too early to ask)?
