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

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

Zombies are always moving fast in video games. It makes sense if you think about it. Those games are all about hand-eye coordination and how quickly can you get them before they get you.

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

For a Catholic kid in parochial school, the only way to survive the beatings - by classmates, not the nuns - was to be the funny guy.

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

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.
