  • I'm working on a movie called Poultrygeist. It's about how the masses are being fed the Kool-Aid by the major media and then, like zombies, go out and eat junk food. That's what the Grindhouse thing is all about. The major media gets word from the giant, devil-worshiping international conglomerates that own it, that say, Now it's time to promote Dreamgirls, and therefore it's Dreamgirls 24/7. We live in an age of zombies, and it's particularly appropriate that I'm working on a zombie movie. S - Unknown

  • The thing I find about the movie industry is that 99 percent of the people are absolute scum. They're horrible people, they really are. Very nasty killer rabbits who hate movies. But the other 1 percent are really the greatest, most wonderful people in the world. They love movies--the art of movies and the business of the movies. - Unknown
