"I firmly believe that a story is only as good as the villain." — Clive Barker

I'm feeling much better than I have been for many years. You know, I... there have been a couple of days when I thought maybe I wasn't going to make it to the evening. I don't feel that anymore.

I love meeting people who've read my books. The prime reason to be on the planet is to make things I can show to other people: paintings, books, movies.

There's a lot of places where the image of a cube as a thing of power is pertinent. I don't know why that is. I don't have any mythic explanation for it, but it seems to work for people.

I certainly knew from an early age... how to tell stories; how to create pictures in other people's heads.

What I tried to do is deliver movies that have worked for me more than once.

Be regular and orderly in your life, that you may be violent and original in your work.

It is the creature that stands at the center of horror movies, not those who have made it their business to bring the beast down. We're all the same.

When I was looking for financing while making 'Hellraiser,' I wish there was a studio like Project Greenlight Digital Studios behind me.
