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
The funny thing is, I'm so used to not caring what anyone says, good or bad, that unfortunately even when people say good things I wish it made me feel good, but it doesn't.
Rob Zombie
For some reason, Horror movies, they seem like good date movies. When you go to them it's all high school kids, all over each other, running up and down the isles, no one is even looking at the screen anyways, they figure they don't have to pay attention to the story anyways. We scream and yell... it's like mayhem.
Rob Zombie
When you lock a movie's release date and then move it two months, it's just not good. It's good for everything but the cast, crew, and people who are creatively trying to make a film.
Rob Zombie
Even a low-budget film costs way more money than a high-priced record. So, it's mo' money, mo' problems. When you have more money, it just creates more people trying to get involved and you have more trouble.
Rob Zombie
All the classic bands that have been around forever, they came up gradually.
Rob Zombie
No matter how successful the remake is, it seems to me it's forgotten quickly after and it's the original that still lives on.
Rob Zombie
Everybody knows that Black Sabbath started everything and almost every single thing that people are playing today has already been done by Black Sabbath. They wrote every single good riff... ever.
Rob Zombie
I understand why some kid in his bedroom in Wisconsin thinks downloading songs couldn't hurt anyone. True fans will buy the CD or go see the movie after downloading, but to say it doesn't affect anyone - come on.
Rob Zombie
Just getting movies made is difficult because it takes a lot of money I mean, it costs more money to make one movie than most bands will spend on every single record of their entire career it's a huge undertaking.
Rob Zombie
Who is this irresistible creature who has an insatiable love for the dead?
Rob Zombie
Horror movies are always a solid dollar. But a movie about Groucho Marx is a gamble. These things just are. Doesn't matter who you are.
Rob Zombie
NC-17 means that you get it in like 3 theaters. They won't run the spots on MTV, won't run the advertising. It's the kiss of death so there was really no other choice.
Rob Zombie
Great things come out of being hungry and cold. Once you're pampered, you get lazy.
Rob Zombie
What bother me, not bother me, exactly that's not the right way to put it. But especially in the horror genre, once a movie like Paranormal Activity comes out and becomes popular - and that's a totally fine and valid movie - everyone starts copying it. Everything becomes a found-footage movie that looks like somebody shot it with their phone.
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
My advice: Don't quit. When I got to New York City, I lived so far below the poverty line, because I didn't give in and get a job at 7-Eleven. I think you can thrive in misery.
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 could care less what people think.
Rob Zombie
I wanted it to be like a high quality, drive-in movie.
