I've always wanted to make a big apocalypse movie. I love 28 Weeks Later, I think it's great but Cell is totally different. It's about people's dependence on technology, the collapse of society and watching everything fall apart. That's something I've always wanted to do, which I believe it can!

My parents love it! They're on set. They make cameos in the movie. My father is a psycho-analyst and a professor at Harvard and he told me how many of the other professors at Harvard have gone and seen it. They love 'Hostel' and they love the thought behind it.

I've always dreamed of having a year-round haunted house.

When I'm filming a kill scene [as a director], I just get happier and happier as we chop up body parts.

You know, I'm from Boston, and in Boston, you are born with a baseball bat in your hand.

I can think of endless horrible things to do to people!

Quentin Tarantino faced the same backlash when his films came out until eventually people felt they were actually much smarter.
