If you go to Hollywood, you've already sold out.

We make our own problems every time. Everything that we complain about is something we can solve.

You couldn't make a cheap drama. That would be too low-budget. Drama has to have good photography and well-known actors.

Studios might cast an actor because he is too tall next to the leading lady, who is too short, or they might not cast your guy because he's blond, and they wanted a brunette. There's all kinds of reasons why they want one person over another. I don't worry about it, but it can hurt sometimes if you really wanted something, if you really went after something.

Digital blood is not effective.

I think having simplicity doesn't always mean that you make a good movie. I have a theory that a movie that's easy to make is hard to watch.

Only comedies can get you that engaged in a movie, dramas people just sort of sit there and eat their popcorn and nothing really happens, they might cry a little bit, but that's it. Horror movies are talking at the screen, guys are elbowing each other, laughing at each other because they got scared. That's the beauty of a horror movie.
