Personal Quote:
I grew up watching things like The Brain That Wouldn't Die (1962) on Saturday afternoon television. There's a guy with his arm ripped off and blood smeared all over the wall. I never saw it as negative. I find that stuff, when it's not rooted in reality, to be cathartic. See more »Trivia:
He was offered a chance to direct How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000), but could not due to a conflict with another project he was working on at the time. His version would've been darker, and the Grinch would've been a more despicable character. See more »Trademark:
Stripes: characters often wear striped clothing, particularly black-and-white stripes (for example, Beetlejuice, Sweeney and Mrs. Lovett in "Sweeney Todd", Katrina in "Sleepy Hollow", and Tweedledum and Tweedledee in "Alice in Wonderland"). See more »Star Sign:
