Only really good comedies and really good horror movies get a verbal response out of the audience. People will scream. People will laugh.

Every day I spend in Hollywood I start to realize how many films are made with no heart and no love. They just do it for the paycheck and I cannot imagine making a film that way.

I don't want to spoon-feed the audience, like, "This is the funny guy, this is one you hate, this is the one you like." A lot of movies do that. They don't really give you a choice. They show you the jock, and he's an idiot, and everybody has to hate him. You have no choice.

What some of the early horror genre masters knew, and what I know, is that the audience are perverts, but in the best possible way.

If you think about it, a lot of great horror films have bad sequels just because the market demands you to make the other one right away.

You can make a film with a phone and a computer if you want, if you have the time. So it's a world that is saturated with films and all kind of stuff, so it's such a blessing to be able to make a film and people care, and even if they say that it's a bad idea, at least they care and they're talking about it.

Not all horror fans love Evil Dead because of the humor, at least not me.
