On the first feature, everything's new. No matter what you're doing, it's a new experience, and you don't really have control over it, in a way, because you just don't know how things work.

More quotes by Rob Zombie
I love Westerns. I really love John Wayne. Frank Capra, any of his movies I love.
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
If there is one thing that, as a director, you don't want to be a part of, it's a group. It's the same thing with music. I don't want to be a part of a scene. Just leave me alone. It's just my nature, and it's nothing against the people that are in that group, but I just like to be left alone.
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
I'm definitely of the mindset of I wouldn't want to be part of any group that would have me as a member.
Rob Zombie
I just like movies, not one particular kind or genre. In fact, movies that are harder to classify I like more.
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
There are always tons of names on a movie of people that didn't actually do anything on that film. I feel bad for the people that busted their ass because they get the same credit as someone who did nothing. It's kind of a weird thing.
Rob Zombie
All the classic bands that have been around forever, they came up gradually.
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
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
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
Short answers seem like you don't care even if you are trying to answer. I get the same flack for my short texting.
Rob Zombie
I've always been a fan of just extreme things. Whether it be in movies, books, TV or real life.
Rob Zombie
Once you feel like you're being dictated by other people's expectations, it usually backfires.
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
Great things come out of being hungry and cold. Once you're pampered, you get lazy.
Rob Zombie
The thing that I see disappearing is just the love of old movies among kids. Everything's accessible, so you can get it, but when everything's accessible, that means you have to access it. And if you're not interested, you don't.
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 can't make everyone happy right away, you can't figure out what people want you to do, you just have to do what you want to do and hope it works out.
Rob Zombie
