I want a movie that 30 years from now, people can look back and see it as a reflection of where the culture was at - as a barometer of the culture.

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

I'm from Boston, and in Boston, you are born with a baseball bat in your hand. And actually, most of the bats in Massachusetts are used off the field instead of on the field, and we all had baseball bats in our cars in high school.

It's just assumed that a horror sequel is going to be bad. It's never going to be as good as the first one.

I like movies like 'Mother's Day', where you watch it, and you've liked it for years as a horror movie.

There's fear in everything, but we can't just succumb to that. We have to suppress it, so we get used to suppressing fear to make it through the our day. Otherwise, we'd become paralyzed by them.

You can pretend everything's fine, but if there's an unhappiness or you're not having sex or you're not communicating or you're made to feel third best in the house and you don't address it and you just try to put on a nice face and a smile, that kind of aggression and anger is going to come out in some sinister way.
