The First Monster You Have To Scare

I Came To Terms With Living Mostly In A World Of Horror Pictures Or Genre Pictures.

The First Monster That An Audience Has To Be Scared Of Is The Filmmaker. They Have To Feel In The Presence Of Someone Not Confined By The Normal Rules Of Propriety And Decency.

I Did Have The Resource Of Having Taught Greek Mythology And The History Of Western Civilization, And You Can Go Back Into The Plays Of Aeschylus And Follow What Happens When People Seek Revenge, And There Are People Plucking Their Eyes Out. And Greek Mythology Is Filled With All Kinds Of Monsters And Whatnot.

I Love The Fact That A Lot Of My Audience Is People From The Inner City. African-americans Love My Films. Whenever I Go To Have A Meeting At Universal, The Security Guard Just Leaps To His Feet And Comes Over, Bumps My Hand, And Says, "thank You! Thank You, I Love Your Films!" And It's People Who Are Kind Of At The Cutting Edge Of Life And Survival, And Being Near The Nitty-gritty, Who Like My Films, And I Like That.

I Learned To Take The First Job That You Have In The Business That You Want To Get Into. It Doesn't Matter What That Job Is, You Get Your Foot In The Door.
