[commenting on his exclusion from Freddy vs. Jason (2003)] I won`t be unemployed. But I will resent the hell out of the fact that somebody else is wearing that mask.

[when asked about the ending of Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan (1989)] That was the scene I disliked most, where Jason turns into a little boy at the end of Part VIII. Somehow in Rob Hedden`s mind, I think, it was a valid ending and he knew what he wanted, but I don`t think it was presented so that people could understand it. I hated that whole ending. And I fought it to the bitter end, but I was overruled. That`s why I pushed to ignore that ending when we began Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday (1993).

[when asked about being a stunt double for actors getting paid a fortune) Not only do they get paid millions of dollars, but then they go on talk shows and say they did all their own stunts. That happens all the time. I`ve seen actors from movies I`ve worked saying they did all their own stunts. There is no actor who does all their own stunts, period. Don`t listen to any of them. They may do a few of them. Not even Jackie Chan. He probably does the most stunts [himself], though.

[when asked his thoughts on Jason`s look in Freddy vs. Jason (2003), in which he did not play Jason] I guess they wanted Jason to look like a skinny little bitch this time.

Attitude is everything when it comes to the character. I`m real natural when it comes to looking scary. If you`re not seriously trying to frighten people, then the fear these movies are intended to generate doesn`t come across. I truly try to scare the shit out of people all the time. Between takes, in the make-up trailer, you never know when I`m going to go "Boo!" That`s the main reason I keep getting asked to play Jason.
