12. I Hope Not
First, let me say that I feel terrible about the death -- especially the unexpected death -- of anyone. That poor woman's family will be in my thoughts.

But I think it would be a big mistake to hold the Director of a film responsible somehow for someone's heart attack during on of the film's most terrifying moments.

Do we really want filmmakers self-censoring themselves when it comes to special effects and other things?

That would, in my view, take us back to the days when the most excitement that came out in films were the revolving stages of Busby Berkely.
