repeat offender

Online Chat with David Fincher

A: Welcome! Let's get to the questions...

Q: What inspired you to make Zodiac?

A: THE THREAT OF SERIAL KILLERS IS REAL! DO NOT BE FOOLED BY STATISTICS SUGGESTING THAT SERIAL KILLINGS HAPPEN INFREQUENTLY.

Q: How much of Zodiac is based on fact?

A: Also, I should say, Jared Leto's character in Panic Room was a serial killer. I explained it in a scene that was deleted.

Q: What was it like working with Jake Gyllenhaal?

A: And another one: Michael Douglas was a serial killer in The Game. LOOK OUT FOR SERIAL KILLERS EVERYONE!!!! Some serial killers come from other planets just to kill humans like in Alien3.

Q: What recommendations do you have for young filmmakers starting out?

A: The most important thing is to get as much experience as possible behind the camera and DON'T be murdered by serial killers before you finish your films.

Q: I was a fan of your music videos ... do you ever miss working on a smaller scale?

A: Good question. As you know, Janie, in "Janie's Got a Gun" was a serial killer. She killed her father, and was planning to kill again. Madonna's cat in "Express Yourself" tortured and killed countless mice. I hope to make some more music videos about serial killers in the future.

Q: I've heard you didn't get along with Forrest Whitaker on the set of Panic Room ... is this true? What do you think about him winning the Oscar?

A: We had a few disagreements. I shouldn't really talk about it. Let's just leave it at I thought he might be a serial killer and confronted him about it and I don't think he had to do much research into mass murder to play Idi Amin because FORREST WHITAKER IS PROBABLY A SERIAL KILLER. But that's all I'll say.

Q: How do you feel about digital vs. film?

A: I've always loved film. I think the rise of digital media, and HD cameras especially, are making it much easier for deranged voyeuristic serial killers to document their crimes. Michael Powell's documentary "Peeping Tom" covered this sort of behavior, and while it was easy to track and catch killers who were transporting bulky film cameras (Bolex, Panaflex), today's crop of killers can go to Best Buy and get a high quality hand sized digitial video camera for under $500. WE ARE PRACTICALLY BEGGING THESE PEOPLE TO BECOME SERIAL KILLERS!

Q: What is your next project?

A: I just hope to survive 2007.
