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

It'll die down like every other genre, but horror has always been one of the four or five main genres that will never go away.

Producers 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.

There is a large element of me in every role I do.

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

You'll lose about two million brain cells every minute that goes by.

I think none of the humor in the first Evil Dead was intentional. We weren't that sophisticated. We got more sophisticated with Evil Dead 2 and Army of Darkness where you can start to manipulate the audience a little more, having more control over the medium instead of just trying to figure out how to do it. I suppose that's pretty normal with any craft. Every carpenter is better 20 years later.
