I'll never get sick of zombies. I just get sick of producers.

I'm like my zombies. I won't stay dead!

My zombies will never take over the world because I need the humans. The humans are the ones I dislike the most, and they're where the trouble really lies.

I can't really make fun of zombies. They're not liars. They're not cheats.

To me, the zombies have always just been zombies. They've always been a cigar. When I first made 'Night of the Living Dead,' it got analyzed and overanalyzed way out of proportion. The zombies were written about as if they represented Nixon's Silent Majority or whatever. But I never thought about it that way.

I always thought of the zombies as being about revolution, one generation consuming the next.
