Peter Jackson

I look back on not just the last ten years but everything that I've done as being sort of an ongoing growing continual film school.

Some guy walking round with pins sticking out of his face. I just can't sit there and think ,'this is really scary.' If I made a 'Hellraiser' film, I'd like Pinhead to be whacked against a wall and have all the pins flattened into his face.
