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.

I've always heard people's criticisms twice as loudly as their praise.

That's what heroic stories do for us. They show us the way. They remind us of the good we are capable of.

It's lovely being a producer. It's really a lot of fun and I can learn a lot.

Every filmmaker knows that when you make a book into a movie, the first thing you have to do is kill the book, unfortunately. You've got to recreate it.

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

Well it's always been an element of the horror film to show us the gross out. I mean that's one option for all filmmakers making a horror film and it's not something I've found myself above either.
