So much of 'Doomsday' is taken from the early 'Mad Max' films.

I enjoy scaring people too much to let it go!

I'm quite interested in adapting some of James Herbert's early work. 'The Dark'... But I was always desperate to do an adaptation of 'War of the Worlds' until the Beard stole it from underneath my feet.

'Raiders of the Lost Ark' made me want to make films. I am wild about the films of John Carpenter, Ridley Scott, Howard Hawks and Sam Peckinpah.

Mel will always be Mad Max, and me, I will always be a Number.

It was taken for granted that we had to make something of ourselves. Not much was said about it; it was just in the atmosphere of the home.
