You know, I put my little brother in the movies and he's still in the pictures. My mother makes me put him in the pictures.

I've always loved... actually I didn't always love horror films. I started out and I only liked comedies and dramas.

My father told me to dress to reflect the respect you have for the people around you. I've never forgotten that.

I had a reporter ask me what it was like to have my best years over so soon. It stayed with me.

I'm not certain, but I have a little gypsy blood in me. And my mother always told me that her grandma could give someone the evil eye, and I'd better not cross her because she had some of that blood in her. Mother always believed that she could predict the future, and she had dreams that came true.

I think in every picture that I've ever made. Everything that I've done torments me. I really would like another chance except I'd be too embarrassed to ever really try to do them again and no one would want to see the same movie just done differently.

Rob [Tapert], myself and Bruce Campbell sat in hundreds of drive-insnot hundreds, but tens of drive-ins, watching these movies and learning how they were made, and we started to make our own in Super 8. And that’s really how we got into horror films. After a while we learned to really like them, and the craft that went into them.
