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.

More quotes by Rob Zombie
I like being organized and super particular.
Rob Zombie
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?
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
People have this delusion that everything has to be for everybody at all times. Every album must be liked by everybody, and every TV show must be liked by everybody, and every movie must be liked by everybody. Everything then becomes bland.
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
Who is this irresistible creature who has an insatiable love for the dead?
Rob Zombie
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.
Rob Zombie
Growing up, I had the weird fantasy list: I wanted to be Alice Cooper, Steven Spielberg, and Stan Lee. You have to have almost psychotic drive, because you're going to have years of failure.
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 think so much about everything. I'm obsessive.
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
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
As far as directors, I'm a big fan of any kind of Billy Wilder stuff. Anything he does.
Rob Zombie
A lot of times the best trailers are for complete dogshit movies. It's a shame that people are beyond quick to judge things these days. Lots of great stuff gets lost that way.
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
Movies in general are more generic. If something sells just make more. That's Hollywood.
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'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
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.
