I grew up watching horror films from a very young age. My sister was never able to watch scary movies; I don't think she'll ever watch mine because she's just so bad at it. Its funny because I'm the complete opposite: I love to be scared. I love to have that fear before you go to bed, and you're like, 'Oh my God, please, nothing come out.' ”

I love to get thrown around, and the reality about it. I hate watching a movie, knowing the actors are faking it. ”

I love 'The Shining.' Kubrick is pretty amazing. ”

No matter what you do in life, it's always a struggle, to first of all find who you are. ”
