I don't think you need to spend $40 million to be creepy. The best horror films are the ones that are much less endowed.

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.

I grew up on DC Comics, moral tales where the bad guys got their comeuppance. To me the gory panels or grotesque stuff just made me chuckle.

I always thought of the zombies as being about revolution, one generation consuming the next.

Nothings ever real until its real.

If I fail, the film industry writes me off as another statistic. If I succeed, they pay me a million bucks to fly out to Hollywood and fart.

People called 28 Days and 28 Weeks zombie movies, and they're not! It's some sort of virus; they're not dead.
