I went to Salem as many Halloweens as I possibly could.

I don't like twists. I don't get much out of them. If you know two cars are about to run into each other, you don't walk away and say, 'Oh, I know what's going to happen.' You watch.

I actually like 'The Shining' more than I like Kubrick, I think. The tension he sustains through the whole film is so great.
