Ever since 'Lassie' and 'Old Yeller', I won't watch animal movies. Animals in movies always die.

The most realistic blood I've seen is when Marlon Brando gets beat up in On The Waterfront.

As a filmmaker, I love the medium. I have a great affection for it and I've been lucky enough to do all different kinds of films. The greatest part of the success I've had comes from horror. I love the idea of mixing humor and horror and to me, it's all a giggle.

Anybody who tunes into Rush Limabaugh already knows what he's going to say and is already inclined to agree. So it winds up creating tribes.

I can't really make fun of zombies. They're not liars. They're not cheats.

Hollywood doesn't trust me, and we don't really mix. When a movie has stars, everything in the budget goes up, even the catering costs. I just don't like the process of having Suits all around, so I prefer casting unknowns. It adds another level of tension - you don't quite know what to expect from them. My movies don't even need that much money.

Zombies are the blue-collar monsters
