Terence Fisher
“Do I believe in the supernatural? Oh yes, certainly. I can’t believe, I can’t accept that you die and that’s the end. Physically maybe it is a fact. But there’s something about the mind that’s more than that.”
William Wyler
“I made over forty Westerns. I used to lie awake nights trying to think up new ways of getting on and off a horse.”
Francis Ford Coppola
“I'm in a unique situation. I'm like now an elderly retired guy who made a lot of money, and now I can just, instead of playing golf, I can make art films.”
Elia Kazan

David Cronenberg

Dario Argento
“Horror is the future. And you cannot be afraid. You must push everything to the absolute limit or else life will be boring. People will be boring.

Sofia Coppola

Roman Polanski
“You have to show violence the way it is. If you don't show it realistically, then that's immoral and harmful. If you don't upset people, then that's obscenity.”
Jean-Luc Godard
“A story should have a beginning, a middle, and an end... but not necessarily in that order. ”
Pier Paolo Pasolini
“The mark which has dominated all my work is this longing for life, this sense of exclusion, which doesn't lessen but augments this love of life.”
