'My Bloody Valentine 3D' Director Inspired by . . . Hannah Montana?

From my personal blog, a scary revelation from the director of "My Bloody Valentine 3D":

Patrick Lussier gets a kick out of making horror films. He edited all three "Scream" movies and has worked with scare master Wes Craven for over 15 years. This year, Lussier directed "My Bloody Valentine 3D," his first foray into 3D film making, featuring a relentlessly graphic display of in-your-face, blood-spurting, bone-crushing attacks by a psychotic miner with a pick axe. Oh, and did I mention the full-frontal nudity?

So what inspired Lussier to give "My Bloody Valentine 3D" just the right look?

Hannah Montana.

Come again?

I know Miley Cyrus could motivate some of you to go on a violent rampage, but I'm not sure sharp implements upside the head are what you had in mind.

Seriously, Lussier gives major props to last year's "Best of Both World's Concert Tour" from Disney. Not so much for the musical content, mind you, but for the slick 3D production. Speaking at the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) convention in Las Vegas Saturday, Lussier said, "With 'Hannah Montana,' watching that movie, you're like 'holy ****, this is amazing!' It was beautiful to watch. I'd never seen anything like it . . . It was inspiring to think of all the possibilities that were available."
