Slasher Quotations

I didn't want it to feel like a slasher movie, ... I wanted it to be a little more kabuki and delicate and weird.

I like zombie movies, and I like genre movies a lot. To watch. Less so to make, I think. But I grew up on that stuff. I would just grow up watching a lot of horror movies, a lot of slasher movies and then zombie movies.

I've been described as a power back in the past year, a slasher previously. I just try to be versatile and all-around, a guy who can catch, block and run in between the tackles or outside.

When I wrote 'Hatchet,' I knew that I was not re-inventing the wheel. That was never my intention. My goal was to make an '80s-style slasher flick that actually holds up. Basically, I wanted to make the movie that I wanted to see and pay no mind to current trends or conventions.

Hannibal Lecter stole Leatherface's mask and ported the slasher conventions into the thriller for the early '90s.

is not your typical horror or slasher movie. It's meant to be a thriller with an edge and a lesson to it.

Psychological horror I've always appreciated, like 'Rosemary's Baby.' The slasher movies and the grotesque movies are the ones that I've really been off for a while.
