There are so many factors when you think of your own films. You think of the people you worked on it with, and somehow forget the movie. You can't forgive the movie for a long time. It takes a few years to look at it with any objectivity and forgive its flaws.

My stuff is my stuff. Sometimes it's not as successful as some of the other stuff. But it's my stuff.

I keep a little notebook of things that I can do to the zombies that might be silly and fun.

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

As a filmmaker you get typecast just as much as an actor does, so I'm trapped in a genre that I love, but I'm trapped in it!

I expect a zombie to show up on Sesame Street soon, teaching kids to count.

Zombies are the real lower-class citizens of the monster world and that's why l like them.
