I think people that love the genre giggle at it. I don't get grossed out, I giggle.

I love the islands, South Pacific and all that. But I think my favorite place is probably France. I love the diversity of the country, the food, just love to be there.

A real program called Helping Hands... real monkeys are put in homes with handicapped or disabled people. They can get you your lunch, answer the door, turn the TV or music on... like having a little helper. They're raised on Discovery Island at Disney World, and you can adopt them!

There are so many factors when you think of your own films. You think of the people you worked on it with, and somehow forget the movie. You can't forgive the movie for a long time. It takes a few years to look at it with any objectivity and forgive its flaws.

I don't know of any TV series that I was so in love with that I'd like to do a remake of except for the Ernie Kovacs show. But, we'd have to go dig him up and see if he's still funny.

A lot of people say my work borrows from Hitchcock, but I think if I've stolen... of COURSE I've stolen, this is a parasitic medium... but if I'm parasitic of anyone it's Welles, and Michael Pal and Kazan... those are my guys. The James Whale stuff... I LOVE the old B&W movies, like classic paintings.
