I'm not a big fan of remakes. And even if they are good, they're still not as good as the original, so what's the point?

More quotes by 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
Dreaming be damned, this is control. Raping your soul, devil's hole.
Rob Zombie
I know when something is done and when it isn't. There's been times working on movies when they [moviemakers] lock in a release date and so you're stuck to that schedule. But sometimes you're still editing and you feel like you're not really done, but they're sort of releasing the movie anyway - that's kind of depressing.
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
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
Movies in general are more generic. If something sells just make more. That's Hollywood.
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
Who is this irresistible creature who has an insatiable love for the dead?
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 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
I love Westerns. I really love John Wayne. Frank Capra, any of his movies I love.
Rob Zombie
As far as directors, I'm a big fan of any kind of Billy Wilder stuff. Anything he does.
Rob Zombie
I have always found clowns really fascinating, especially on film. Even as a kid I was never scared of them.
Rob Zombie
I didn't grow up in a creative environment. It was very boring town, boring everything. You go to school and you basically hate all the other kids because you don't understand them or what it's all about. At the same time I'm happy for that because I became very withdrawn and when you become withdrawn you develop your own bizarre-o personality.
Rob Zombie
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.
Rob Zombie
Sometimes I'll go out into the crowd and keep singing, but I'll get maybe seven rows out and I'm out of synch, I'm a couple seconds behind the band and then it becomes chaos.
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
Without really analyzing it, I grew up in Massachusetts, so the Salem witch trials were always something that I was around. The average kindergartner probably doesn't know about it, except that in Massachusetts, you do, because they'll take you on field trips to see reenactments and stuff.
Rob Zombie
The hardest part was convincing people that I was serious. The people were like 'you want to do this again'?
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.
