You Should Have Left Director Tried to Scare Kevin Bacon for Real, But It Backfired – MovieWeb

Kevin Bacon has a long and storied movie career, and he has worked in every genre of films imaginable. Particularly when it comes to horror, the actor has been a part of such standouts as Friday the 13th, Tremors, and Hollow Man. David Koepp is directing Bacon in their new horror-thriller You Should Have Left. The two have worked together previously on Stir Of Echoes, where Koepp recalls trying to scare the actor into giving an authentic performance, which just ended up annoying him.

Look, a guy who has been killed on-set by Jason Voorhees's mom, almost swallowed whole by giant underground worms, and plummeted down the elevator shaft to his doom while invisible is not going to get jumpy from a starter pistol shot. After that David Koepp realized Bacon's talent and imagination could be safely relied upon to give his performance what was needed without any extreme external aid.

For Bacon, being a part of a horror film again is a welcome treat and a reminder of the innovation that goes into crafting a movie that keeps you on the edge of your seat.
