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.

I think storytelling is storytelling. It doesn't matter what format it's shot on.

The individual who has to justify his existence by his own efforts is in eternal bondage to himself.

I'm very manipulative towards directors. My theory is that everyone on the set is directing the film, we're all receiving art messages from the universe on how we should do the film.

I am producing sounds that people are not used to hearing from the harp.

For me, life is an opportunity to serve Him, and death is the privilege of getting to be with Him.
