David Cronenberg knows what we actors do as artists.

When you first think of making a monster movie you have to realize that a lot of people may be down on you because there is a big prejudice against such films.

It's about finding unique, one-of-a-kind films that I would want to see myself. I think 'Party Monster' is one of those.

Working with David Cronenberg or Darren Aronofsky or even Steven Soderbergh isn't really like a typical Hollywood movie. These are true artists, and have a certain amount of freedom when they work, and they're more like independent filmmakers making their way through big studios.

The Japanese, despite the trade deficit and their ability to build fabulous automobiles, still think that a guy in a monster suit is all that is needed for a monster movie.

'Alien' is a landmark. One of the really good science-fiction films.

'Alien' is one of my all-time favorite horror films - that has a great monster.

Really interesting genre films, especially monster movies, evoke the fears of the times intentionally.

In a movie that's sort of a single monster movie, like 'Jaws,' once you see the animal, it identifies the threat, and you're able to start working on ways to take down the threat.
