I feel like I've become an encyclopedia of obscure film moments. There's a line in Holy Hell from an obscure Russell Crowe action film, Virtuosity, which is a beautiful piece of early 90's garbage that I'm in love with.
[when discussing his favorite and least favorite horror genres]
I'd say my favorite sub-genre is psychological horror. I love monsters and plots that could be taking place inside the characters' heads. The line between reality and madness is so fine and movies that blur it explore a real-life fear that I find deeply disturbing.
Least favorite? Any film that's just about a monster chasing people. If it's got an underlying theme of human experience, or is a metaphor for a fear we all have, that's amazing! But if it's just "Oh man, this guy with a pitchfork doesn't like kids" I get bored.
[on his relationship with Catholicism] I was raised in the Catholic school system, and the Church was pretty good to and for me. I never knew any Father Banes, I swear! In fact, in real life, I'm a pacifist.
