As a child that was disenfranchised from everything, and that was in a world that was the wrong size, run by the wrong people, the wrong morale and the wrong rules, I felt completely outside of that, and I wanted some measure of control, and the measure of control I found was through fear.

I think part of making movies is dealing with restrictions of freedom and budget. I'd rather deal with restrictions of budget. It's better to feel free within any budget.

I think video games are going to completely take over storytelling in our society. Video games are not a fad.

I started when I was eight, doing super 8 films

I think once a Catholic, always a Catholic. You never escape. I still have Catholic guilt. It is in its basis a really powerful religion and a really strong set of beliefs. They permeate my work in many ways.

I was part of a group that had a cinema club so every week we would project two or three movies on 16 or 35mm.

Never fly commercial. That's the moral of this story.
