Quotes

[1992 comment on being labeled a scream queen] I didn't even know I was in that category. I haven't seen any of the films I've done all the way through. I'm not really up on the genre, and I don't know any of the other so-called scream queens. Linnea Quigley? Who is she? I don't live and die as an actress with horror. These are just films I've done and, in most cases, I've done them for the money.

I'm not the type of person to take a lot of shit from anybody. If I'm right, I'm right -- and I'm not about to back down.

I don't research my roles. I'm not into Method acting and stuff like that. It's just a natural thing.

[on acting in low-budget movies] They're fun to do, and there's certainly a lot of experience to be had from being in them. But having a good time is the main reason I'm in this business. When it stops being fun, I'll get out.

I'm not ashamed to tell people that I've done a lot of crappy movies for the money. That's how I've paid the rent -- and how I've learned.

[comment from 1992] I've never been so desperate to work that I would do anything. I turn down a lot of films. I won't do slasher films, and I will only do nudity when the script is good. I know I've done nude scenes in poor films before, but my priorities have changed. I also won't do TV anymore. I was just offered a pilot and turned it down. I've done my television stint, and I can't see going back.
