More quotes by George A. Romero
Nothings ever real until its real.
George A. Romero
Zombies are the real lower-class citizens of the monster world and that's why l like them.
George A. Romero
You can fall on your face easily if you go off in a certain direction. The Birds is a good example, some people are really phobic about birds flying over their heads, and some don't care. So, it's a personal thing.
George A. Romero
As a filmmaker you get typecast just as much as an actor does, so I'm trapped in a genre that I love, but I'm trapped in it!
George A. Romero
If I fail, the film industry writes me off as another statistic. If I succeed, they pay me a million bucks to fly out to Hollywood and fart.
George A. Romero
Everybody knows the rules, even though some break those rules.
George A. Romero
Movies are about escape.
George A. Romero
My opinion of a good zombie walk is to loll your head as if it's a little too heavy and the muscles have begun to atrophy.
George A. Romero
Zombies are the blue-collar monsters
George A. Romero
For a Catholic kid in parochial school, the only way to survive the beatings - by classmates, not the nuns - was to be the funny guy.
George A. Romero
I don't think you need to spend $40 million to be creepy. The best horror films are the ones that are much less endowed.
George A. Romero
I think zombies would fit in anywhere. You can tell any story, and put zombies in it. I don't know how I'd find the backing, but I think it'd be great to make a zombie gangster movie.
George A. Romero
As great as Ed is, the wisdom out here is that he can't carry a movie. They'll pay him $3 million to be the second banana in Julia Roberts things. But they won't put up $3 million for an Ed Harris movie.
George A. Romero
Zombies are always moving fast in video games. It makes sense if you think about it. Those games are all about hand-eye coordination and how quickly can you get them before they get you.
George A. Romero
I'm like my zombies. I won't stay dead!
George A. Romero
Collaborate, don't dictate.
George A. Romero
I expect a zombie to show up on Sesame Street soon, teaching kids to count.
George A. Romero
There are so many factors when you think of your own films. You think of the people you worked on it with, and somehow forget the movie. You can't forgive the movie for a long time. It takes a few years to look at it with any objectivity and forgive its flaws.
George A. Romero
I keep a little notebook of things that I can do to the zombies that might be silly and fun.
George A. Romero
My stuff is my stuff. I do it for my own reasons, using my own peculiar set of guidelines. I'm not a student of the genre. I don't care what anybody else does.
George A. Romero
