“It was my mustache that landed jobs for me. In those silent-film days it was the mark of a villain. When I realized they had me pegged as a foreign nobleman type I began to live the part, too.

“I had a hard time watching "Wolf Creek." It is a film with one clear purpose: To establish the commercial credentials of its director by showing his skill at depicting the brutal tracking, torture and mutilation of screaming young women. When the killer severs the spine of one of his victims and calls her "a head on a stick," I wanted to walk out of the theater and keep on walking.” HardWantedFilmYoungPurposeWalksClearWalkingDirectorsSkillsTheaterVictimSticksTortureHard TimesKillersBrutalYoung WomenSpineCreeksCredentialsTrackingMutilation Author:Roger Ebert

“I like to work in films, but I'd love to work in the technical side of film. I'd love to work with, say, Greg Nicotero [The Walking Dead] in kind of, like, special makeup effects.
