In Europe, there is no horror movie. It's very hard to make a slasher or gory movie. There is no audience for that.

A movie like 'The Last House On The Left' would be very hard to do in Europe.

I've never done a horror movie, like a full-on gore slasher film.

I ain't gonna get this, it's a horror movie, it's hard to act scared.

I'm not really a horror movie fan.

The audience that would see that movie, by and large, doesn't go to see horror films, ... It was a great pleasure to make, and to see Meryl (Streep) nominated (for a best actress Oscar) for it. But most of the people I run into who loved it are surprised that I made it. When you have a name that means scares, you have to live with that.
