I think the problem I have with films is that, because there's so much hype around them, they become bigger than they should be, really. There are things that people do every day in their little workshops that they'll take to heaven with them. You've got to realise that it's not everything, making films.

I guess, you make a big studio film, you spend a lot of money on it and you hope people go see it. It's really risky.

I know what I miss as a cinemagoer is that balance of films that actually scare me; they're so few and far between.

A lot of things and a lot of money is involved in a movie. It is very upsetting when a movie doesn't fare well at the box-office.

Making a film, every film, is a big gamble, large or small. The more that you do it, the more you're aware of that.

It's hard to get movie studios to pay a lot of money for movies that don't have robots or explosions.

It kind of irks me that the studio films still have to be so safe even though they don't really cost as much to make.

There's always gonna be people with a lot of money making film, and the goal is to make profit and carry on. It is a business. The goal is to make a living doing it and to be comfortable.

Like I said about Freaked, people tend to find these films, and I think that in the end the cool thing about a movie is that it can be sort of burnt temporarily, but then it's burnt into the fabric of your culture.

A movie set is like a petri dish for neuroses, you know? It's just, like, egos and weird personalities and, more than anything, fear.
