Theres just something wonderful about getting a small group of people together in an isolated location, and theres something about cabins themselves that imply both horror and fun. When you go to a cabin, youre usually going to have a good time.

In a weird way, it's much easier, when I don't have to worry about being a writer, to just worry about the director job, which is really fun.

That's kind of how I've based my career. I find talented people and beg me to let me work with them.

Some people like when it rains a lot. Some people like sunshine. The idea that there's one, all encompassing afterlife is strange. It doesn't seem to make sense because we're all such different people.

I just go with what excites me.

Ive found that if you just try to make the film you want, youll find the right audience. If you try to please everyone, youre going to make really boring films.

It's so rare that you meet your idols and they outdo your expectations.
