Collaborate, don't dictate.

I think zombies would fit in anywhere. You can tell any story, and put zombies in it. I don't know how I'd find the backing, but I think it'd be great to make a zombie gangster movie.

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

I like guys who are understandable and good guys who are flawed.

It would be very hard to write a serious drama and say some of these things. You can be much more abstract and allusive with horror, and it's very forgiving to the author. You don't necessarily have to take an absolutely positive position. You can just write whatever.

Just because I'm showing somebody being disemboweled doesn't mean that I have to get heavy and put a message behind it.

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!
