For me, the sound design and the musical score is a big part of what makes scary movies work.

I think the financial restraint really pushes me as a director to be more creative with the way I shoot the film.

I think you can say a lot with the movement of your camera but you can also say a lot by keeping it still.

We're not just horror fans. We're film fans. I love action films. I want to do action films. I want to do romantic comedies. I love all this stuff. So, if I find the good material, I'll do it.

If a man does what is good, let him do it again; let him delight in it; happiness is the outcome of good.

I've always been, in games, the bad guy. If there was ever cops and robbers I was always a robber.

The day that witnesses the conversion of our ministers into political and philosophical speculators or scientific lecturers, will witness the final decay of clerical weight and influence.

My role in life is that of the grain of sand to the oyster-it irritates the oyster and out comes a pearl.
