Hammer Horror Films

Famous quotes containing the words horror films, hammer, horror and/or films:

    I think of horror films as art, as films of confrontation. Films that make you confront aspects of your own life that are difficult to face. Just because you’re making a horror film doesn’t mean you can’t make an artful film.
    David Cronenberg (b. 1943)

    I suppose that one of the psychological principles of advertising is to so hammer the name of your product into the mind of the timid buyer that when he is confronted with a brusk demand for an order he can’t think of anything else to say, whether he wants it or not.
    Robert Benchley (1889–1945)

    One might say that the true subject of the horror genre is the struggle for recognition of all that our civilization represses and oppresses.
    Robin Wood (b. 1931)

    Does art reflect life? In movies, yes. Because more than any other art form, films have been a mirror held up to society’s porous face.
    Marjorie Rosen (b. 1942)
