George A. Romero Quotes

«I never liked the Friday The 13th movies, or any of that. It's just not my bag. It's a genre that I guess current audiences haven't seen in a while, or haven't seen at all. I have a 14-year-old daughter, and the first one of those she ever watched, she only watched because of peer pressure.»
Author: George A. Romero
«My opinion of a good zombie walk is to loll your head as if it's a little too heavy and the muscles have begun to atrophy.»
Author: George A. Romero
«I think people that love the genre giggle at it. I don't get grossed out, I giggle.»
Author: George A. Romero
