Horror movies travel pretty well anyway. They're like action movies: People overseas can watch them and enjoy them, and they're not so culturally specific in terms of their references, and they can follow a good scary story.
Robert Englund
Image
Horror fans are a particular breed. They analyze films with such detail and expertise that I am reminded of the Canadian literary critic Northrup Frye, who approached literature with similar archetypal analysis.
Roger Ebert
Image
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
Image
Horror is one of the few genres - romance and comedy are the other two that come to mind - that's all emotion-driven. It's not a rational genre, like science fiction is. It's irrational by nature. And it is capable of exploring all aspects of human experience.
Stephen R. Bissette

Horror movies, man, the blood entails so much time. And horror movies are not fun definitely not starting there as a director. Definitely not horror.
Corey Haim
Image
Horror movies are the best date movies. There's no wondering , 'When do I put my arm around her?'
Eli Roth
Image
Horror allows you to do things as a composer than you're able to do in no other style of movie. The music has to be aggressive. You can't tiptoe around. It has to be incredibly focused dramatically - no time for second thoughts. It needs to generate a kneejerk reaction.
Christopher Young

Horror movies scare me. I don't really watch them. I'm not a big horror genre fan. I like certain classic horror - like 'Alien', 'Jaws', 'The Exorcist', stuff like that.
Katharine Isabelle

Horror movies started to wane around the onset of World War II, and after World War II, when all the troops came home, people weren't really interested in seeing horror movies, because they had the real horror right on their front doorsteps.
Kirk Hammett
Image
Horror is a totally different animal. It's intense. You can do drama or comedies, but in horror, you really have to trick yourself into believing a lot of unbelievable phenomena.
Kyle Gallner
Image
Horror is beyond the reach of psychology.
Theodor Adorno
Image
Horror movies are here to stay, you know? It's not a fad. Even the musical has gone in and out of style from time to time. Horror movies have always been around.
Jerry O'Connell
Image
Horror, let's face it, is basically pretty dumb. You're writing about events that are preposterous, and the trick is to dress them up in language so compelling that the reader doesn't care.
T. E. D. Klein
Image
Horror causes men to clench their fists, and in horror men join together.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Image
Horror movie is a great date movie. For dates... maybe grab on to the guy. I just think people love a good scare.
Tara Reid
Image
Horror has been a genre since the beginning of cinema, all the way back to the days of silent films. I don't think it will ever go away because it's so universal. Humor doesn't always travel to other countries, but horror does.
John Carpenter
Image
Horror, for me, is not defined by the thing that provokes ones fear, but the human being who has contact with it.
Andrew Pyper
Image
Horror and supernatural novels give you a lot of what you look for in a crime novel, just with a twist that was very fresh for me as a reader.
Michael Koryta
Image
Horror alone brings peace of mind.
Ernest Becker
Image
Horror has been very good to me in my career. Doing horror films is for the fans and helps keep that part of my career alive.
Robert Englund
Image
Horror films have been with us forever, so you can't say I originated that in any way, but it sort of brought back a classical way to make a horror film.
Roger Corman
Image
Horror is the removal of masks.
Robert Bloch
Image
Horror fiction shows us that the control we believe we have is purely illusory, and that every moment we teeter on chaos and oblivion.
Clive Barker
Image
Horror fiction seems to spawn more dumbass 'rules' than any other kind of writing, and one of the dumbest is the assumed 'requirement' of a twist ending, going all the way back to H.H. Munro. This story is also the result of a long rumination on how stories are sometimes scuttled or diminished by succumbing to such 'rules'.
