don`t mind Hollywood. After all, I don`t make movies that are like avant garde or not understandable. I just like to make a mainstream movie with all the edges that existed in the writing and I don`t like to see it flattened out in order to cater to audiences. I don`t really give a shit what people think about my movie after watching it and giving it a test score, but I really care about what you think about it when you see it in its purity, because I don`t feel like I`m going to lose you. I don`t feel like my movies are going to be for everyone because they`re not, because sometimes they`re more adult and that eliminates kids.

On horror: "I don`t take stuff seriously. I saw `Hellraiser 3` the other day at Cannes; it`s OK, it`s a good film, I didn`t hate it or anything. I thought it was quite good, but it was all just so serious. Some guy walking round with pins sticking out of his face. I just can`t sit there and think ,`this is really scary.` If I made a `Hellraiser` film, I`d like Pinhead to be whacked against a wall and have all the pins flattened into his face. I immediately start thinking of funny things and gags - that`s just the way I am. I doubt I could ever control myself sufficiently to make a serious horror film."
