With the first ‘Hatchet,’ I had an epic battle with the ratings board. They kept giving the movie an NC-17. There is absolutely no way that movie should have gotten an NC-17. All the gore in it is so ridiculous and over-the-top that you can’t take it seriously. Adam Green Read Quote
Hollywood is a roulette wheel. Each project dictates what’s going to happen for you next, and it doesn’t really matter that your project is critically acclaimed or won awards or has fans worldwide. It’s a matter of how many movie tickets and DVDs and on-demand movies that you sell. Adam Green Read Quote
Aside from ‘Hatchet II’ and ‘Hatchet III,’ I’ve never repeated myself. I try to keep doing things that are totally different. Adam Green Read Quote
Every day is like Halloween or Christmas eve for me. I go to bed, and I’m so excited to get back to work. I’m very lucky that I have a career like that ’cause not many people do. Adam Green Read Quote
I think when you’re a director, it’s hard to do something unless you’re absolutely over-the-moon in love with it. The audience, they spend 90 minutes with it, but for you, it’s anywhere between a year and a half to three years of your life, every day, working on it. Adam Green Read Quote
I have found that my fan base is a bit above average when compared to the common horror fan. Adam Green Read Quote
When you go to Best Buy and see a DVD of your movie, you think it’s amazing. But then there’s a whole other world that comes with it. It’s a very small percent that’s difficult, stalker-like, or annoying. Most people are just so gracious and so nice. As cheesy as it sounds, that’s the thing that really keeps you going.

To all the other dreamers out there, don’t ever stop or let the world’s negativity disenchant you or your spirit. If you surround yourself with love and the right people, anything is possible. Adam Green Read Quote
I once pitched this show that was just like ‘Quantum Leap,’ in terms of the set-up, and I got a pass because they said ‘Quantum Leap’ didn’t work, even though it was on for six or seven seasons. You can’t say ‘Quantum Leap’ didn’t work! Adam Green Read Quote
