I'm a pretty psycho-obsessed shrink.

When you're an actor and you can set your arm on fire, you feel kind of magical.

I make a star's salary when I do horror, because I can still open a movie in Italy or Spain or Germany.

I did lots of Shakespeare and classics, and I just kind of became that person. I was a bit of a snob.

I don't choose roles. I go where I'm wanted.

There's a depth to the nightmare, to the symbolism you can exploit, on an intellectual level, on a sexual level, on a primal, violent level, and I think all of those things together are just great. They're the spice and ingredients in the menu of the horror movie, and I think that's why we'll be around for a long time.

I have friends that are much better actors than I am that had to quit the business because they couldn't survive the auditions or the rejections, or people just didn't realize how good they were.
