Nothings ever real until its real.

As great as Ed is, the wisdom out here is that he can't carry a movie. They'll pay him $3 million to be the second banana in Julia Roberts things. But they won't put up $3 million for an Ed Harris movie.

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.

A zombie film is not fun without a bunch of stupid people running around and observing how they fail to handle the situation.

I also have always liked the monster within idea. I like the zombies being us. Zombies are the blue-collar monsters.

Collaborate, don't dictate.

I've always felt that the real horror is next door to us, that the scariest monsters are our neighbors.
