I wouldn't be a part of anything that had acts of violence toward children. I don't think I would do a horror film, either. That just doesn't sit well on my soul. ~ Kate Winslet
Horror Film quotes by Kate Winslet
It's not scary to make a horror film because you get to pull back the curtain and see that none of it's real. When you're watching one, the terror bombards you. ~ Josh Hartnett
Horror Film quotes by Josh Hartnett
My brother and I are huge fans of foreign horror. Some of the most interesting movies are coming from overseas. I guess if there was one change we'd like to see, it would be more original horror films made by the studio system and less of a reliance on remakes. ~ Michael Rasmussen
Horror Film quotes by Michael Rasmussen
If you make a movie of the present day culture, in the future it'll be a horror film. ~ Jacque Fresco
Horror Film quotes by Jacque Fresco
Rob [Tapert], myself and Bruce Campbell sat in hundreds of drive-insnot hundreds, but tens of drive-ins, watching these movies and learning how they were made, and we started to make our own in Super 8. And that's really how we got into horror films. After a while we learned to really like them, and the craft that went into them. ~ Sam Raimi
Horror Film quotes by Sam Raimi
Why should a horror film be just a horror film? To me, The Company of Wolves is a fairy tale; it's got all those elements plus a lot more. And we know that fairy tales aren't innocent any more. ~ Neil Jordan
Horror Film quotes by Neil Jordan
Ivanov's breath smelled of vodka and sewers, sour and heavy, like something rotting, reminiscent of empty houses near swamps, nightfall at four in the afternoon, vapors rising from the sickly grass and fogging the dark windows. A horror film, thought Ansky. Where everything has come to a halt, and it comes to a halt because it knows it's lost. ~ Roberto Bolano
Horror Film quotes by Roberto Bolano
There's more emphasis on art and culture in Europe than there is in the United States and I think that a lot of American directors and writers are just trying to copy other American horror films, they don't pick up much in the way that European filmmakers do. ~ Wes Craven
Horror Film quotes by Wes Craven
Everyone has the opportunity to do a horror film. There's something great about it as an actor. You have to go to places you'd normally never go and be put in situations you would never be put into. You don't get the opportunity in a lot of films to have this kind of acting. It's an interesting challenge. ~ Alexandra Daddario
Horror Film quotes by Alexandra Daddario
Horror films don't create fear. They release it. ~ Wes Craven
Horror Film quotes by Wes Craven
When I was a kid I was really into horror films. I watched every single horror film that came out in the 80s. ~ David Hayter
Horror Film quotes by David Hayter
Forget horror icon, Kety Bates is an icon. She's an acting icon. I was raised on so many of her films, everything from Misery to Fried Green Tomatoes to Delores Claiborne, all films that I've watched multiple times and been inspired by. ~ Matt Bomer
Horror Film quotes by Matt Bomer
I want to have an ending where people say: "That's the most shocking ending I've ever seen in a mainstream horror film." ~ Eli Roth
Horror Film quotes by Eli Roth
What I love about watching classic horror films is that they take you on a ride and they obviously make you scared because you're so invested in the characters, you're almost forgetting that oh my God, this is about to scare me. ~ Katie Holmes
Horror Film quotes by Katie Holmes
Well, outside of the tone, the big thing that I gained from working on horror film was how to shoot really quickly with no money. I learned how to be able to go into a production and know exactly what shot I need to get and how the shot needs to look and what performance I need to get out of the talent at a very quick pace. ~ Deon Taylor
Horror Film quotes by Deon Taylor
The issue of the mysterious power of transmission arises here. What do you transmit to your child? Blonde hair, blue eyes, very small feet? But also a taste for cigarettes, panettone, boys with guitars? Is this foetus's life destined to be filled with suitcases packed in the middle of the night, suitcases that will always return to their point of departure some weeks later?

In other words, is this foetus destined to relive, again and again, emotions encoded in a fossilized region of its brain and thus, almost simultaneously, experience love and the end of the world, hope and lightning, a romantic comedy and a horror film? ~ Monica Sabolo
Horror Film quotes by Monica Sabolo
I lived right on the borderline of a black neighborhood. So I could go into the black area and then there'd be these ghetto theaters that you could actually see the new kung fu movie or the new blaxploitation movie or the new horror film or whatever. And then there was also, if you went just a little further away, there was actually a little art house cinema. So I could actually see, you know, French movies or Italian movies, when they came out. ~ Quentin Tarantino
Horror Film quotes by Quentin Tarantino
Carrie was a terrific piece of work. At the end of the movie comes, when Amy Irving kneels down to put the flowers on Carrie's grave, a hand comes up through the grave and seizes her by the arm. The audience went to the roof, totally to the roof. It was just the most amazing reaction. And I thought, 'We have a monster hit on our hands. Brian De Palma has done something new. He's actually created a shock ending that shocks an audience that was ready for a horror film.' And there were several people who did it after that. ~ Stephen King
Horror Film quotes by Stephen King
I don't know how I didn't kill any one of my sisters. For this one horror film we were making, I made my own harness for my sister. I wrapped her in all these ropes, but then also put a noose around her neck and hung her from a tree. Now I think, 'What if my harness didn't work?' I'm so lucky that nothing ever happened. ~ Alexa Vega
Horror Film quotes by Alexa Vega
Perhaps in the back of our minds we already understand, without all the science I've discussed, that something terribly wrong is happening. Our sustenance now comes from misery. We know that if someone offers to show us a film on how our meat is produced, it will be a horror film. We perhaps know more than we care to admit, keeping it down in the dark places of our memory
disavowed. When we eat factory-farmed meat we live, literally, on tortured flesh. Increasingly, that tortured flesh is becoming our own. ~ Jonathan Safran Foer
Horror Film quotes by Jonathan Safran Foer
I made this movie for $40,000, which was this little black-and-white horror film called Dementia 13, which we made in about nine days. ~ Francis Ford Coppola
Horror Film quotes by Francis Ford Coppola
I've always been fascinated by horror films and genre films. And horror films harbored a fascination for me and always have been something I've wanted to watch and wanted to make. ~ Edgar Wright
Horror Film quotes by Edgar Wright
This is the part of the horror film where you yell at the girl on the screen,'Don't *go*. You idiot! Don't go! Why are they always so stupid?' Cam *told* her mom he could be a serial killer. ~ Wendy Wunder
Horror Film quotes by Wendy Wunder
When I first heard of it, I thought it was a horror film. 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' is such a strange name. I wasn't into the comic books at all. ~ Judith Hoag
Horror Film quotes by Judith Hoag
I was never a big fan of horror. I got into it making these films, but I don't ever see myself doing slasher movies. The kind of horror film I like is 'The Shining.' I don't really like slashers, but I love thrillers with tension. ~ Caity Lotz
Horror Film quotes by Caity Lotz
I think that, back in the day, there used to be a lot of horror films that kind of had a checklist of what went into making the 'perfect horror film', and I think now people are raising the bar in the industry, as far as the types of horror films that are being made. ~ Elisha Cuthbert
Horror Film quotes by Elisha Cuthbert
With a horror movie most of the actual jumps and scares are made in the edit. It's often not very scary on set and then you watch the film and suddenly it's very scary because the way the jump scares fit together building up the suspense in the audience because it's making them jump when they're least expecting it. ~ Jeremy Irvine
Horror Film quotes by Jeremy Irvine
I make unpopular versions of popular things. I make a horror film and it's not a horror film. None of my genre movies function as genre movies. ~ Mary Harron
Horror Film quotes by Mary Harron
I read a lot of ghost stories because I was writing a ghost story. I didn't think at all I was writing a horror or a thriller or whatever because it is about a ghost, whereas a horror film can be about aliens or things that rise out of the marsh that have no human shape. ~ Susan Hill
Horror Film quotes by Susan Hill
I think so much of the horror film is about our primal instincts, and our primal instincts are not just towards violence. It's also towards sex. I feel like horror movies, as much as they're about violence, they're also about sex. It's about our instincts, so in that regard, it's crucial that you honor both of those things. ~ Drew Goddard
Horror Film quotes by Drew Goddard
'The Exorcist' is absolutely my favorite horror film, and I watched it when I was, like, seven years old with my mother for the first time. I don't know why my mom let me watch that. I couldn't go to the bathroom by myself. I couldn't go upstairs by myself. I couldn't sleep. ~ Odette Annable
Horror Film quotes by Odette Annable
I always go with the story and character and if those are good and if the setting is something that's scary (horror films seem to always take place at night and the weather's always bad) then I might be interested. ~ David Naughton
Horror Film quotes by David Naughton
It's funny that you can murder someone horribly and graphically and disturbingly in a horror film, and it's not an NC-17, but if you put a naked man on screen, everyone freaks out. ~ Carey Mulligan
Horror Film quotes by Carey Mulligan
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. ~ Kim Jee-woon
Horror Film quotes by Kim Jee-woon
I believe, as a producer/director, your duty is to create a beautiful horror film that really resonates. ~ Guillermo Del Toro
Horror Film quotes by Guillermo Del Toro
You make a horror film that's not very good. You'd be joining a long line, in a long video aisle, of stuff that doesn't work. ~ Patrick Fabian
Horror Film quotes by Patrick Fabian
When you become old ... When you become old, you find yourself auditioning for the role of a lifetime; then, after interminable rehearsals, you're finally starring in a horror film--a talentless, irresponsible, and above all low-budget horror film, in which (as is the way with horror films) they're saving the worst for last. ~ Martin Amis
Horror Film quotes by Martin Amis
I've always been a Dracula/vampire aficionado, being half-Romanian myself. Dracula has always been close to my heart - in fact, I have a first edition of Bram Stoker's book. I read it over and over again as a young kid. ~ Ray Wise
Horror Film quotes by Ray Wise
I'm always a fan of a good horror film. ~ Andre Braugher
Horror Film quotes by Andre Braugher
The first horror film I remember seeing in the theatre was Halloween and from the first scene when the kid puts on the mask and it is his POV, I was hooked. ~ David Arquette
Horror Film quotes by David Arquette
Well it's always been an element of the horror film to show us the gross out. I mean that's one option for all filmmakers making a horror film and it's not something I've found myself above either. ~ Sam Raimi
Horror Film quotes by Sam Raimi
The Company of Wolves doesn't belong in any category, so it's difficult to prepare an audience for it. It's not a horror film, it's not a fantasy film, it's not a children's film - so what is it? ~ Neil Jordan
Horror Film quotes by Neil Jordan
The air was so thick with crumbs that it was like a scene from the horror film that cakes would make if they had video cameras and thumbs. ~ Greg James
Horror Film quotes by Greg James
Just as making an omelette & breaking eggs you can't make a horror film without breaking a few heads! ~ Kensington Gore
Horror Film quotes by Kensington Gore
They really do have nothing in common on paper, these people and him. But yet there are so many common reference points; even some unexpected ones ... they all want to be cool. And they're all scared but no good at showing it ... [t]hey all know how to act cool. after all, life's pretty scary most of the time. And the number one skill you need out there is how to show no fear ... Stay calm. Don't let people see that you are shy or nervous. If you watch a horror film, remember to laugh. If someone else seems scared, laugh at them. In the real world, danger is either fantasy, in which case you laugh, or too real, in which case you ignore it. ~ Scarlett Thomas
Horror Film quotes by Scarlett Thomas
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. ~ Todd Phillips
Horror Film quotes by Todd Phillips
Shortcut.' The word filled me with dread. When has a shortcut ever worked out as planned? The word – in a horror film at least – usually precedes disembowelment and death. A 'shortcut' almost never leads to good times. ~ Anthony Bourdain
Horror Film quotes by Anthony Bourdain
If you don't want to be scared in a horror film, don't close your eyes. Close your ears. ~ Eli Roth
Horror Film quotes by Eli Roth
I think the important thing about staying creative and staying sharp and original is not to look back too much. ~ Wes Craven
Horror Film quotes by Wes Craven
I think that horror films have a very direct relationship to the time in which they're made. The films that really strike a film with the public are very often reflecting something that everyone, consciously or unconsciously feeling - atomic age, post 9-11, post Iraq war; it's hard to predict what people are going to be afraid of. ~ Eli Roth
Horror Film quotes by Eli Roth
'The Quiet Ones' was my first film, let alone my first horror film, and I had so much fun. I had such a laugh, every single day. I look like such a feral child in it. ~ Olivia Cooke
Horror Film quotes by Olivia Cooke
The normal storyline of a horror film or a slasher film is the young, beautiful college folks go camping and get systematically killed by the person in a mask. So that's how it normally is. ~ John Schneider
Horror Film quotes by John Schneider
I set out to do a horror film with 'Dog Soldiers,' and what I came out with at the end of the day was something that was more of a cult movie, more of a black comedy with some horror elements in it. It kind of went over the top. ~ Neil Marshall
Horror Film quotes by Neil Marshall
Reality' would not only be boring without spirit; it would have no meaning whatsoever. No horror film can begin to capture the horror of such a vision: a world without spirit. ~ Malachi Martin
Horror Film quotes by Malachi Martin
The scariest movie I have ever seen, and my favorite horror film is, 'The Exorcist.' It is a must-see horror/thriller classic. I watch it every couple of years. ~ Keegan Allen
Horror Film quotes by Keegan Allen
'The Conjuring' is incredibly effective and scary without the use of blood, gore, and death. It's a horror film that emphasizes atmosphere and suspense in the tradition of classics like 'Psycho' or 'The Others.' ~ Toby Emmerich
Horror Film quotes by Toby Emmerich
Take my wife ... please. I'm not saying she's ugly, but when she went to see a horror film, the audience thought she was making a personal appearance. ~ Les Dawson
Horror Film quotes by Les Dawson
I love superheroes and I love weird horror films ... I could definitely feel that there was a lack of movies like The Martian being made: smart genre movies that can appeal to adults. ~ Drew Goddard
Horror Film quotes by Drew Goddard
The action movie, the thriller and the drama all have safety nets under them. But not the horror film. The horror film can sink to an abyss far darker than the imagination can ever reach. ~ Marcus Dunstan
Horror Film quotes by Marcus Dunstan
I have an Honors Degree in Drama from the University of Alberta, but when it was done I knew a life in modern theatre was not for me. While figuring out what the hell I might do instead of theatre, I spent a couple of days on a horror film doing stunt work. I'd never been behind the camera before, and I loved everything about it. I joined the local film co-op - The Film and Video Arts Society of Alberta - because you could trade skills for experience. These indie filmmakers were making their own stuff their own way, all the time. Instant education. ~ Karen Walton
Horror Film quotes by Karen Walton
When people would ask me what I was doing, I'd be like, 'It's a horror film.' 'What is it about?' 'You'll just have to see it.' I really didn't want to explain it because it's really tough to explain without it just sounding really ridiculous. ~ David Robert Mitchell
Horror Film quotes by David Robert Mitchell
'Dark Circles' is a great relationship/character piece and also a horror film. It tinkered with the genre, which I loved. I was sick of seeing the same thing, sick of people just trying to get a movie made. ~ Johnathon Schaech
Horror Film quotes by Johnathon Schaech
When you're watching an action movie, you experience an action movie more outside of the aquarium, you're out of the aquarium looking in at all the swimming fish that are in there. Whereas horror films and thrillers are designed to put the audience into that box, into that aquarium. ~ James Wan
Horror Film quotes by James Wan
Actually, I can't stand watching violent scenes in films; I avoid watching horror films. I don't tend to watch action films mainly because I find them boring, but I watch the films of David Cronenberg and Martin Scorsese, usually in a state close to having a heart attack. I'm a complete coward. I make violent films as a result of my sensitivity to violence - in other words, my fear of violence. ~ Park Chan-wook
Horror Film quotes by Park Chan-wook
Being a mother was like being trapped in the first fifteen minutes of a horror film. Everything was fine, lovely. But there was this persistent sense of dread. ~ Laura Lippman
Horror Film quotes by Laura Lippman
I feel like most horror films are made for teenagers about teenagers. I've done a couple of those horror films. There's nothing wrong with that but the older I get the more I starve for more adult material. ~ Mary Elizabeth Winstead
Horror Film quotes by Mary Elizabeth Winstead
With The Exorcist we said what we wanted to say. Neither one of us view it as a horror film. We view it as a film about the mysteries of faith. It's easier for people to call it a horror film. Or a great horror film. Or the greatest horror film ever made. Whenever I see that, I feel a great distance from it. ~ William Friedkin
Horror Film quotes by William Friedkin
As an actor, whatever I get the opportunity to do, if it has a good story then I'm in. I thought 'Dead End' had a great story; 'Nightmare on Elm Street,' of course, was probably the first real horror film I was in. ~ Lin Shaye
Horror Film quotes by Lin Shaye
I just want to make sure that the thing that I see in it initially, that I think it can be, is not just going to be a horror film and reduced to a jump here and a scream there. But that you can take something away from it. ~ Vera Farmiga
Horror Film quotes by Vera Farmiga
I've always loved ... actually I didn't always love horror films. I started out and I only liked comedies and dramas. ~ Sam Raimi
Horror Film quotes by Sam Raimi
I don't think when I started off that I was expecting to become so specialized, but what happened is that when my career started, I didn't pick my first film. I was picked to do it, and it happened to be a horror film. ~ Christopher Young
Horror Film quotes by Christopher Young
Any time a new horror film comes out that looks appealing, I'm always excited to go see it. ~ Alex Breckenridge
Horror Film quotes by Alex Breckenridge
When the black thing was at its worst, when the illicit cocktails and the ten-mile runs stopped working, I would feel numb as if dead to the world. I moved unconsciously, with heavy limbs, like a zombie from a horror film. I felt a pain so fierce and persistent deep inside me, I was tempted to take the chopping knife in the kitchen and cut the black thing out I would lie on my bed staring at the ceiling thinking about that knife and using all my limited powers of self-control to stop myself from going downstairs to get it. ~ Alice Jamieson
Horror Film quotes by Alice Jamieson
I love my horror films and they will always be very close to me. ~ Amber Heard
Horror Film quotes by Amber Heard
I think the idea was to make a horror film that became a science-fiction film with a lot of melodramatic tropes. ~ Nicolas Winding Refn
Horror Film quotes by Nicolas Winding Refn
I'd never watch a horror film, but after I found out I was going to be in one, I watched, like, four of them, including The Shining, I was terrified - I couldn't sleep for days. But I wanted to get myself used to things I was going to see on the set. ~ Jennifer Love Hewitt
Horror Film quotes by Jennifer Love Hewitt
Scream was great for what it was. For a horror film, it was intelligent, it was funny, it took a laugh at itself. ~ Neve Campbell
Horror Film quotes by Neve Campbell
The cellar was straight off the set of a horror film. The floor was packed dirt and littered with the droppings of mice and rats. The worn stone walls were damp with a slick layer of mold. Even the air was heavy and filled with a dark sense of menace. It combined to create an atmosphere that would send most people fleeing in terror. But Edra was made of sterner stuff. ~ Alexandra Ivy
Horror Film quotes by Alexandra Ivy
When you're playing the devil, you're playing the ultimate evil. There are no boundaries. In doing a film in the horror genre or a psychological thriller, you're really pushed as an actress, you're pushed way outside of your comfort zone. Emotionally, mentally, and physically. That's when things really get fun. ~ Ashley Bell
Horror Film quotes by Ashley Bell
Horror films do not prepare us for the hours lost in searching after one clear thought. ~ Norman Mailer
Horror Film quotes by Norman Mailer
Yuki: "What can I learn from a stupid cat like you? You didn't even know that Jason isn't really a bear. He's a character in a horror film."
Kyo: "Yeah? So what if I didn't? Like I'd waste my time watching some movie about a bear!"
Yuki: You truly are an idiot. ~ Natsuki Takaya
Horror Film quotes by Natsuki Takaya
Poor decisions and bad luck are contingencies of most horror films. ~ Wesley Morris
Horror Film quotes by Wesley Morris
Horror films are very functional like comedies. The main thing with a comedy, the big question is "is it funny?" And with horror the question is "is it scary?" ~ Leigh Whannell
Horror Film quotes by Leigh Whannell
I don't understand it, but every horror film is huge. I would consider one, but I don't know if my heart would be in it. ~ Roselyn Sanchez
Horror Film quotes by Roselyn Sanchez
'Psycho' is probably the best known example of a horror film whose exclusive sound was strings, and since then, it's been hard to avoid that. The minute you have strings as your primary voice, the comparisons are always made. ~ Christopher Young
Horror Film quotes by Christopher Young
I never would have guessed I would be making science fiction and horror films. ~ Matt Reeves
Horror Film quotes by Matt Reeves
I don't care how inventive you are; once you introduce strings into the ensemble for a horror film, you're entering into a world where a tradition has been thoroughly established. So it's repeated use over the years is like, 'Oh God, another film with strings, another spooky movie with strings.' ~ Christopher Young
Horror Film quotes by Christopher Young
I believe singing should be like being an actor. People shouldn't have any problem buying an actor being in a comedy or a drama or a horror film. That should be the same way with music. ~ Darren Criss
Horror Film quotes by Darren Criss
I'm not a director to make an action or horror film. That's not for me. ~ Jason Alexander
Horror Film quotes by Jason Alexander
I've made a way to allow myself to do big films, small films, dramas, comedies, action films, horror films, or whatever interests me, as a movie-goer. I like watching myself in movies. I want to choose movies that allow me to enjoy myself, the way that I want to entertain myself. ~ Samuel L. Jackson
Horror Film quotes by Samuel L. Jackson
I just want to be with great teachers. If that means I'm in a horror film with good teachers, I'll do another horror film. But I would love to branch out and do more comedy or just more straight dramas. ~ Jennifer Carpenter
Horror Film quotes by Jennifer Carpenter
Horror films had died a little bit before Scream came around. That was one of the reasons I wrote it. I wanted to write something that wasn't being made right now and maybe sell if I come up with a new horror film. Because no one is watching those movies. Let's do it. That was my whole goal, and it paid off. I feel like it's never stopped. ~ Kevin D. Williamson
Horror Film quotes by Kevin D. Williamson
I think my mom is the inspiration of me wanting to do film and TV and be an actor because she loved film so much. She loved, like, horror films and action films, so growing up, she loved watching all the Charles Bronson films and all the westerns. ~ Rick Gonzalez
Horror Film quotes by Rick Gonzalez
As a kid, I couldn't articulate it but I sought out things that could. At first it was horror films - extreme panic and terror, grotesque and maniacal. These films calmed me and made me feel more connected in my experiences. ~ Tony Burgess
Horror Film quotes by Tony Burgess
I was imagining films in my head and trying to gather friends together to make movies since I was a kid. I tried to do comedy skits and a horror film. ~ Cary Fukunaga
Horror Film quotes by Cary Fukunaga
Pakistan now is like a horror film franchise. You know, it's 'Friday the 13th, Episode 63: The Terrorist from Pakistan.' And each time we hear of Pakistan it's in that context. ~ Mohsin Hamid
Horror Film quotes by Mohsin Hamid
I would much rather watch a horror film or science fiction than a comedy. I don't know why. I just like them. I find them relaxing. ~ Moon Bloodgood
Horror Film quotes by Moon Bloodgood
Horror has been a genre since the beginning of cinema, all the way back to the days of silent films. I don't think it will ever go away because it's so universal. Humor doesn't always travel to other countries, but horror does. ~ John Carpenter
Horror Film quotes by John Carpenter
It is interesting to note that the best periods of Italian Horror films came out of the Sixties, when Italy was enjoying a carnival period of phenomenal optimism, and the shadowy side surfaced with all of its attendant dark, beautiful, baroque, catholic symbolism. ~ Barbara Steele
Horror Film quotes by Barbara Steele
Horror films have always been quite operatic for me. I always sort of scratch my head at people's offense to them? If you don't get them, and you don't like them, then don't watch them. ~ Bryan Fuller
Horror Film quotes by Bryan Fuller
