Mark Gatiss Quotes

I always wanted to do Restoration comedy. It seems like so much fun Picture Quote #1

The question I ask myself is: have I really just become a squeamish middle-aged man, or has something happened to the horror genre that shows a growing appetite for watching torture, or at least a desire to explore it on film? And if so, why would that be? I can’t pretend I know. I just know I don’t like it Picture Quote #1

I prefer sneaking in the back door Picture Quote #1

I always compare reading anything on the Internet to listening at doors. If you don’t want to hear anything bad about yourself, you should never do it Picture Quote #1

I’m terribly nostalgic, but I’m with the Elizabethans who thought nostalgia was a disease. It’s a dangerous place to be because you can get caught up in it Picture Quote #1

Sci-fi and fantasy used to be a TV staple throughout my childhood. Then it just stopped dead. It was seen as culty, a minority interest Picture Quote #1

They are called ‘Emos’ now, and before that they were ‘Goths.’ They didn’t have a name for it when I was one, but I was that black-wearing teenager and yes, I wore a little eyeliner Picture Quote #1

When I was seven or eight, I was bought a fantastic book called ‘The Movie Treasury of Horror Movies’ by Alan G. Frank; it became my bible. It’s packed full of the most amazing photos and is still fantastic to look at Picture Quote #1

The first film I can remember seeing on TV was ‘The Brides of Dracula.’ I was instantly hooked Picture Quote #1

The thing is, horror is a big part of ‘Sherlock Holmes.’ Doyle also wrote a lot of great horror stories, so there’s a lot more horror in ‘Holmes’ that people possibly think of. There’s a lot of curses and mysticism and real scares Picture Quote #1

Some facts in life are immutable. One is, trust no-one who uses the word ‘trope’ Picture Quote #1

Son of Frankenstein’ is never talked about in the same tone as James Whale’s 1931 ‘Frankenstein.’ But it should be. It was Boris Karloff’s last appearance in the Frankenstein series and stars Donnie Dunagan, then a child actor Picture Quote #1

Grooming-wise, it is now a constant battle as I progressively turn into my father. I have to keep on top of ear and nose hair - things you never believe will happen to you. Suddenly I have a shaving brush in my ear and I don’t know where it’s come from, and the more hair I take the out, the more it surges back Picture Quote #1

Fear is an underrated emotion. And that’s why I think it’s very dangerous to try and cosset children from it. A healthy scare is as good as as a healthy laugh. In fact, they’re two sides of the same coin. There is a desire to shield from the knocks and bumps of reality Picture Quote #1

I am a gay man who loves James Bond films and snooker - all kinds of working-class pursuits Picture Quote #1

Even when I was a child, I always wanted to be older. I realised just in time that it’s a mistake and to enjoy my youth while I had it Picture Quote #1
