Broken Quotes
I was mugged once, which really scared me, and we had a manually controlled elevator in the building. This guy jumped me, he had broken the door... the glass of the street door and he had a big sliver of that and held it to my throat. That was the scariest thing that ever happened to me. He just wanted my credit cards.

Bonds Quotes
We lived in the Bronx, didn't have a lot of dough and it was quiet until I went away to go to school. Cut the bonds and went crazy. Studied painting and design for three years at Carnegie Mellon and transferred to the drama department and decided that I WAS Orson Welles. I'd actually go around in a cape and do things like that.

Credit Quotes
The studios aren't going to credit the genre as much as they are, you know, the marketing of an individual thing, or whatever it was. They'll try to imitate it. They want something that has the same things-young stars from TV. They think they have the formula worked out. I just think it's a fool's game.

Anyone Quotes
A lot of people say my work borrows from Hitchcock, but I think if I've stolen... of COURSE I've stolen, this is a parasitic medium... but if I'm parasitic of anyone it's Welles, and Michael Pal and Kazan... those are my guys. The James Whale stuff... I LOVE the old B&W movies, like classic paintings.

Audiences Quotes
I never liked the Friday The 13th movies, or any of that. It's just not my bag. It's a genre that I guess current audiences haven't seen in a while, or haven't seen at all. I have a 14-year-old daughter, and the first one of those she ever watched, she only watched because of peer pressure.
