Terence Fisher

“Frankenstein, to me, is a tragic figure. He is a creator who is destroyed by his own creation.”

“My main interest is in making entertainment. I'm not a moralist, I'm not a preacher.”

“I believe in God and I believe in the Devil. I think that the one without the other is totally incomplete.”

“All my pictures are fairy tales, but with a solid rock of truth. Good against evil.”

“I don't believe in shocks, I believe in suspense.”

“The cinema is a marvellous medium for telling a story. It has a power of its own.”

“I try to make my films as real as possible, but I don't think there is such a thing as a real horror film.”

“The real horror is not in the monster, but in the evil that men do.”

“I always tried to make the audience believe in the impossible.”
