10 Questions and Artworks with Mariano Mattos

What’s your favorite scary movie?

I wish I could name a top 5 because it’s always difficult to choose just one. But, I can say Return Of The Living Dead (1985)!

What’s your favorite horror artwork you’ve created?

I love the one I made recently for DEMONS (1985), but it hasn`t been released yet.

When did you start doing horror art?

The horror theme has been involved all of my life. I think watching horror movies influenced a lot of my drawings when I was a child. I decided to dedicate my art, especially to this theme in recent years.

Favorite horror movie sequel?

Halloween II (1981)

Favorite horror movie character?

Michael Myers

What film do you think deserves a sequel that never got one?

A third part of Fright Night for sure!

Favorite horror movie scene?

The first scene from Scream (1996) is pure gold, a horror movie in itself.

Favorite kill scene?

There’s one kill scene that will stick with me forever and that is Mark’s wheelchair death from Friday The 13th Part 2 (1981).

Cheesiest kill scene?

One I love is the final scene In A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) when Freddy takes Nancy’s mother.

What horror film do you think is underrated?

Deadly Friend (1986) from Wes Craven.
