    • Bob Gunton: (on doing a films in the horror genre) Well, I'm unaccustomed as I am. I've done one [horror genre] turkey that earned me a major tomato award. You know that rotten tomato? Man, I scored.
    • Bob Gunton: (on being directed by James Wan in "Dead Silence") It's humbling for a guy of my age sometimes to take direction from someone who is maybe a third of my age.
    • Bob Gunton: I come from theater, where theater is not bound by sort of linear, logical reality. It makes these huge leaps. I've done lots of plays where they'll be a bare stage, and if the actor told you he was in the middle of a jungle, okay, you're in the middle of a jungle. It's just how temporary suspension of disbelief works.
