Quotes by Wes Craven
Last House’ offended a lot of people. The results in the theaters, even in Boston, reminded me a bit of things from when I was studying Theater of the Absurd, and the rise and the appearance of Ionesco plays, and things like that.
Wes Craven
You just find the best actors that you can. There’s an inherent drama within the framework of scares and killings and all that. In ‘Scream,’ there is very real drama that would be in almost any drama.
Wes Craven
Everybody is afraid of the unknown. Everybody is afraid of the people that they’ve done terrible things to!
