I'm not sure you get that in school. Anyways, an earring and a shaven head are not so scary these days.</p> Giving people a new kind of fright after they’ve gotten used to the ones you already served up requires a masterful recalculation of fear itself, not to mention updated subtleties re techniques for eliciting alarm, confusion and terror, if that remains the style and genre.

Rahul, LOL.

Agup, I presume you mean Indian-American director. If so, you’ve got to include Mira Nair in the discussion, though his box office success is unrivaled.
