Horror Quotes

Horror films and genre films are interesting, because I always look for a deeper meaning or a deeper theme in the film Picture Quote #1

In our world photographs of one dead terrorist mastermind carry no real news or information about the nature or horror of war. They just create sensation instead of deeper understanding Picture Quote #1

I just wanted to make sure that yes, that those horror - they worked as a genre. To me, I just wanted to be touched by the film in the way that I saw plausible. Which is the story about compassion - giving and receiving it in those desperate times of need Picture Quote #1

I have never read horror, nor do I consider The Exorcist to be such, but rather as a suspenseful supernatural detective story, or paranormal police procedural Picture Quote #1

I’ve always been a fan of sci-fi, fantasy, and horror. I like working with larger-than-life characters in fascinating worlds - places where the rules are different Picture Quote #1

I love all kinds of movies. I love a really good comedy and not the cheesy ones. My parents hate this, but I love horror films. Those are my favorite, and of course, dramatic roles. I’m really drawn to those as well. All different genres Picture Quote #1

After my film ‘The Tale of Two Sisters,’ I received a lot of offers from Hollywood to direct, but because ‘A Tale of Two Sisters’ was a horror film, I received a lot of horror films. But I wasn’t interested in working in the same genre, and the scripts I received for films in different genres were for projects that were near completion Picture Quote #1

The one negative to horror is that it’s always law of diminishing returns. When you go in the funhouse, the ride is never scary the second time. You will never have that pure experience as when you first watch it Picture Quote #1

The true face of smoking is disease, death and horror - not the glamour and sophistication the pushers in the tobacco industry try to portray Picture Quote #1

I don’t have a horror film in me just because I don’t like to be scared. But I definitely have a documentary in me, and I certainly have dramas Picture Quote #1

You decide you’re going to do horror, then gosh darn it, do horror. Do what’s expected. Don’t kind of do it. Don’t dilly-dally around, because people really enjoy the genre, and they expect certain things Picture Quote #1

It’s a great excuse and luxury, having a job and blaming it for your inability to do your own art. When you don’t have to work, you are left with the horror of facing your own lack of imagination and your own emptiness. A devastating possibility when finally time is your own Picture Quote #1

I don’t complain about the horror of life; I complain about the horror of my life. The only fact I worry about is that I exist and suffer and can’t even dream of being removed from my feeling of suffering Picture Quote #1

I don’t want you leaving laughing, I want to leave you shaking. That to me is true horror Picture Quote #1

There’s no doubt that there’s a struggling in birth, and a beauty and a horror and fear and joy too Picture Quote #1

My earliest memories of horror are ‘Friday the 13th Part 2,’ John Carpenter’s ‘The Thing,’ ‘Halloween,’ ‘An American Werewolf in London,’ and ‘A Nightmare On Elm Street’... and ‘Hatchet’ is so obviously inspired by those films that I may as well have made it in 1984 Picture Quote #1

I’ve always found it easy and natural and, more importantly, necessary to articulate thoughts and feelings, and fierce emotions, through the written word. Fantasy and horror came to me when I was very young Picture Quote #1

Horror is about dreams and heightened states. It really is about taking away the logic on some level and getting right to the emotion of something Picture Quote #1

I think horror films in the past maybe touched on social themes having to do with whatever era in which they were made, but in the end, it’s definitely an escapist form of entertainment Picture Quote #1

In general, literature is a natural adversary of totalitarianism. Tyrannical governments all view literature in the same way: as their enemy. I lived for a long time in a totalitarian state, and I know firsthand that horror Picture Quote #1

I do know that I’ve read somewhere that it’s been statistically proven that in times of war, horror films are much more popular. I don’t know why that is. You’d think it’d be the opposite. You’d think people would want to escape from it Picture Quote #1

In my opinion, what ‘The Evil Dead’ is to horror, ‘Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters’ is to action-fantasy, with these horror elements and a steampunk-y twist Picture Quote #1

If you think about it, a lot of great horror films have bad sequels just because the market demands you to make the other one right away. Thank God no one in the ‘Evil Dead’ family thinks that way Picture Quote #1

I watched ‘Evil Dead’ when I was 12. I was going through all the horror I could grab. I remember going to the video store and asking for something ‘real.’ And the guy gave me the ‘Evil Dead’ VHS. When you’re 12, you’re not supposed to see that Picture Quote #1

I don’t really get philosophical, but I believe that nice people are strong and usually in my horror stories, I don’t like to write about the old standard where some rotten guy gets chased by a mean spirit that gets him in the end.I’d rather write about nice people that are menaced from outside by some sort of evil power and who sort of slug it out Picture Quote #1

I don’t like the fact that people are supposed to think horror movies have a way things should go. I always try to do the exact opposite of what people expect and want Picture Quote #1
