'Troll 2' is one of the rare sequels where you don't have to waste time watching the first one, since the films have absolutely nothing to do with one another.

I want people to see my name on a movie, pay money and know they're going to be entertained for 90 minutes.

Look at comic books. It used to be something that only geeks were into. And now it's everywhere.

When I was filming the death scene [in Inglourious Basterds], and I'm killing somebody, I had to work myself up.

When you're making a television show, it's about the story and arc of the show rather than any particular episode or director.

I saw Alien when I was 8 years old. To me, it was like a combination of Jaws and Star Wars and that's the movie that made me want to be a director.

When I go see an R-rated horror movie, I want lots of violence. I want nudity. I want sex and violence mixed together. What's wrong with that? Am I the only one? I don't think so.
