I love movies that have that resonating scare, that really get under your skin and make you think.

You know, the best thing you can say about a horror film is, 'Don't see it.'

I'd love to see us get to a point where you can make a movie and not worry about the limits of the violence. Then I think they'd get so violent that people would get bored of it.

Anytime you make a movie, the goal is a wide theatrical release, with the right distributor.

I felt people responded to two things. One, obviously, is the gore and the scenes like the eye gauging.

I look at careers like Ben Stiller and think that's a great career to have where you're doing movies that you write and direct, and also act in films, although he's primarily an actor.

The one negative to horror is that it's always law of diminishing returns. When you go in the funhouse, the ride is never scary the second time. You will never have that pure experience as when you first watch it.
