I've always had an interest in vampire films - not just 'Nosferatu,' but there are many others that I have enjoyed: Abel Ferrara,Coppola, Neil Jordan.

I'd like to do a really masculine film.

The point of revenge is not in the completion but in the process.

Sometimes you need these warm, human moments - something that feels close - to help things along.

I guess I probably make violent films partly because I can't express my anger in my real life very well.

A film set is a workplace for me; it's my office, and nobody really wants to be in a stressful work environment.

Certain subjects may no longer be taboo in cinema. But there are ways to treat them that still create shock.
