Every day I spend in Hollywood I start to realize how many films are made with no heart and no love. They just do it for the paycheck and I cannot imagine making a film that way.

In my everyday life, I can be as square as I want. But when it comes to movies and telling stories, I can't. I've got to be radical, and on some level, that's what I like to do.

That's kind of my ideal sequel - a movie that continues the story, takes one character and moves on, and moves forward with that character that survived with the first one.

I always say that I am a big fan of films but I am an even bigger fan of the filmmaking craft.

There are the horror fans that love the Evil Dead because of the humor, but I’m sure it’s not all of them. Not all horror fans love Evil Dead because of the humor, at least not me.

There's so much stuff going on behind the cameras. Sometimes people think these things are done certain ways and when you watch that you see how hard and down and dirty it was.

Only really good comedies and really good horror movies get a verbal response out of the audience. People will scream. People will laugh.

As a storyteller, when you're writing a movie and when you're directing, you want to keep people entertained. That's the whole point, right? It has to be entertaining.

I love just about every aspect of the filmmaking except acting. I would never be able to do that, but the rest I really enjoy.

In another life, I would love to be the art guy - a production designer or a maybe even a composer.

There's a reason people use CGI: it's cheaper and faster. I hate that.

We all have sweet spots when triggered, we unleash our potential. Best motivation is when it comes from within. Find your sweet spots and get motivated to accomplish extraordinary things!!!

I can't run a company... I can't even run my own life!

If I were to live in Africa, serving the poor, the number-one thing I'd miss wouldn't be running water or electricity - it would be style... being able to get dressed up and feel beautiful.

Evil is short lived. Never judge of the whole round of life by the mere segment you can see. The whole is, in the end, perfect.

When you go to a restaurant, the less you know about what happens in the kitchen, the more you enjoy your meal.

I believe I'm enough, you know what I'm saying?

Only the footsteps of the blind are short, but their thoughts are long.

What you get with violence can be maintained only with violence

Not wanting to die was another universal constant, it seemed.

Were all the letters sun, I could not see one.
