In his spare time he takes iconic scenes from movies and simply removes one of the pivotal characters. He generally goes with psychological thriller/horror movies, as those work best to achieve his goals.

He also has redone the trailer for the Joaquin Phoenix film “Her” by replacing Scarlett Johansson’s voice with Philip Seymour Hoffman’s!
