Every cool riff has already been written by Black Sabbath. You're either playing it faster or slower or backwards, but they wrote it first.

More quotes by Rob Zombie
You know... the only person I really had to please after a point was the MPAA. Because Lions' Gate was like, hey, whatever you can get away with is fine, we don't care.
Rob Zombie
I don't want to just make horror movies I don't want to just make any type of movie - I don't just like horror movies, I love movies.
Rob Zombie
The hardest part was convincing people that I was serious. The people were like 'you want to do this again'?
Rob Zombie
I'm sick of remakes, how about something different. That's the thing - people always come to me and are like 'what do you want to remake, we know we can get that greenlight, what do you want to make?' I don't want to remake a g-d damn focking think.
Rob Zombie
I love Westerns. I really love John Wayne. Frank Capra, any of his movies I love.
Rob Zombie
White Zombie was a bunch of kids with the worst equipment playing in a basement. But that is what is so great about it. There is no reason to think that you can't do it.
Rob Zombie
I don't do anything for the money. I don't need to. I could have retired after White Zombie and been just fine. Money doesn't matter. But there is still a good living to be made, even in the niche. The funny thing is, as time goes on, the niche stuff gets bigger and bigger.
Rob Zombie
I don't know that I have a fascination with witches per se - well, maybe I just have a fascination with everything that's weird.
Rob Zombie
When I came off the Halloween movies, they were very stressful movies to make. That had been four very stressful years. I'm happy with how they turned out, but getting the end results took so much fighting with people and so much craziness, that at the end of it I was so burnt out.
Rob Zombie
There`s always the trick with anything what`s a remake. Like how much do you want to make that is brand new and how much to you want to keep that is original?
Rob Zombie
I'd always want to decorate my bedroom. I needed visuals and to be stimulated by things. I'm still like that. It's the way I see the world.
Rob Zombie
You might like it as a joke or because you liked it then, but there isn't a whole new generation discovering Wham!.
Rob Zombie
I have always found clowns really fascinating, especially on film. Even as a kid I was never scared of them.
Rob Zombie
You just have to do the thing that you feel is true to your vision, and then the audience will make the decision. But as soon as you feel like you're creating a product to just cater to what you think they want, it never works. It always feels phony. And the audience can tell immediately.
Rob Zombie
The pirating thing is bad. The people it hurts the most are the ones you least think it hurts. It's not the big Britney Spears albums that are being pirated it's the indie bands that don't have two cents to their name
Rob Zombie
I don't like the fact that people are supposed to think horror movies have a way things should go. I always try to do the exact opposite of what people expect and want.
Rob Zombie
When you can program your own life, you're just going to program what you already like. Because of that, people's taste becomes much more narrow-minded.
Rob Zombie
The art of moviemaking seems to get thrown away. The cinematography is gone, and the look of everything becomes of little importance. You lose the memorable images everything looks like it's been shot at night with a security camera.
Rob Zombie
Once you feel like you're being dictated by other people's expectations, it usually backfires.
Rob Zombie
I'm not extremely political. I think everything should be layed out and you can make your own conclusions. As soon as I feel I'm being taught something or preached something, I just glaze over it and I don't want to hear it.
Rob Zombie
