Blumhouse Would’ve Turned Down A QUIET PLACE

Blumhouse is responsible for some of the top horror classics of the past 10 years. But there’s one recent horror hit that producer Jason Blum admits he would have passed on if given the opportunity: John Kransinski’s A Quiet Place.
“I could not have pulled it off,” Blum admitted to Variety. “I would have loved to produce the movie, but I don’t think we would have done it as well as they did it, because it’s a totally different space that we operate in.
He continues: “It’s a big movie. The effects in that movie were spectacular. Effects in horror movies are almost impossible to do well and that’s why you rarely see them in our movies. You get a good look at the monster, which is usually a real no-no in horror. It’s a no-no, because every time you get a look at it, it’s often much less scary than what you could have imagined. That’s not true in this movie, and that’s to their credit.”
