Quote examples
George A. Romero
American Director
When you are working with low budgets and you have a gunshot with a squib and it goes wrong - the gun flash does not synchronize with the squib or whatever - it takes half an hour or 40 minutes to clean it all up and reset it. It's much easier to use a computer to paint in the flash and splatter.
Quote examples
Adam Green
American Director
I was lucky enough to have an older brother who shared the splatter flicks with me, and I had parents who were cool and involved enough in my life to allow me to see them. I think my folks appreciated that I looked at these movies as a creative outlet... almost like magic shows, if you will.
Quote examples
George A. Romero
American Director
I do think of my films as morality plays, even though my reputation is, you know, splatter films and like that. But I think of them as very moral.

I do tend to use watercolors - I love the splatter sort of thing you can do with watercolors.
