I was always aware of the ticking clock of time, always. I was very aware that I had a lot to do, and I wanted to do those things in the best possible way that I could and probably the biggest way I possibly could.

For a writer, and particularly a writer of my genre, which is the fantastical, I think that it's to my advantage to feel remote from and disconnected from the world of deal making.

Teaming up with Adaptive Stud...

Teaming up with Adaptive Studios and Shudder is a wonderful opportunity to support emerging filmmakers in finding the new horror icon. This is also a great chance to scare and entertain audiences at the same time.

I have the normal complement ...

I have the normal complement of anxieties, neuroses, psychoses and whatever else - but I'm absolutely nothing special.

You can plan to be brave - it's even better if you just try to be brave.

I love the idea of stories being about great beginnings and terrible endings.

Nobody cares for the product ...

Nobody cares for the product I, and a host of other horror directors, make.

Neil Gaiman is a star. He con...

Neil Gaiman is a star. He constructs stories like some demented cook might make a wedding cake, building layer upon layer, including all kinds of sweet and sour in the mix.

Clive Barker 175 quotes

Nothing ever begins. There is...

Nothing ever begins. There is no first moment; no single word or place from which this or any other story springs.

'Hellraiser' was what 'Hellra...

'Hellraiser' was what 'Hellraiser' was. It was a $900k movie, and there wasn't anything I would have done differently. But 'Nightbreed' was taken away from me. It was thought that its meaning wasn't... Its meaning didn't chime with the producers.

I wanted to fold into the 'He...

I wanted to fold into the 'Hellraiser' narrative something about the guy - the Frenchman Lemarchand - who made the mysterious box, which raises Pinhead. I figured, 'Well, what would have happened to him?' He might well have been taken to Devil's Island, and I thought that would be a pretty cool place to start the movie.

It is great good health to be...

It is great good health to believe, as the Hindus do, that there are 33 million gods and goddesses in the world. It is great good health to want to understand one's dreams. It is great good health to desire the ambiguous and paradoxical.

I don't take accusations of selling out lightly.

Hell is reimagined by every generation. We have to reinvent the worst so that we can reinvent the best.

Clive Barker 175 quotes

I want to be able to still su...

I want to be able to still surprise myself, even shock myself, whether it be sexual content, whether it be about the theological content, whatever. I want to be able to knock myself sideways. Otherwise, what a waste of a life that would be.

Clive Barker 175 quotes

I don't feel there's any reas...

I don't feel there's any reason to apologise for having a wicked imagination. I think it's important as a maker of fantasy and of horror.

I'm a gay man, living an out life for a long time, and it's tiring and anger-making to hear people continue to spit out the same old dreary cliches about the fact that gay men are doing something unnatural, and there'll be a price to pay when the Rapture happens.

Clive Barker 175 quotes

The 'Hellraiser' situation wa...

The 'Hellraiser' situation was pretty darn wonderful and very unusual. Nor did I understand how radically unusual the thesis of 'Nightbreed' was.

When I was looking for financing while making 'Hellraiser,' I wish there was a studio like Project Greenlight Digital Studios behind me.

Clive Barker 175 quotes

One of the things I'm trying ...

One of the things I'm trying to do over and over again in my books is create new mythologies, create new ways to understand the complexity of the world. I think what mythology does is impress upon chaotic experience the patterns, hierarchies and shapes which allow us to interpret the chaos and make fresh sense of it.
