Life is a series of avoiding horrible situations until ultimately you're dead. That's how I feel about things.

I get a little too obsessive with work.

I want an iPhone 5, someone said something nasty on twitter, or my boyfriend isn't texting me back, like whatever the thing is that seems so major in your life, when a real disaster hits you suddenly strips it all away and you see what's really important and who you really are.

Anytime you're the first to speak out against something, there's going to be a backlash.

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

Shooting at Quentin Tarantino movie was like a masterclass in directing. Although I went back literally right into rehearsal, started shooting... while I was doing it I had to write my Grindhouse trailer and I added two days of shooting. My brother was producing Hostel and the Grindhouse trailer and I was like: "Gabe, just figure this out!"

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