In real life, I'm a large character, and I need the space and platform to be large.

For horror movies, it's great because I know exactly what I am doing and what should be done. But for a cop drama, I can't calm my face down, and so it's really nice to be able to be in this genre where nothing is too much, and no one yells at me for having big eyes.

I love comedy. Comedy is one of my favourite things to do.

Ruth Gordon was such a delight to watch in 'Rosemary's Baby' after I had first seen her in 'Harold and Maude.' And Ellen Burstyn is a hero of mine from 'Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore,' The Exorcist,' 'Requiem For A Dream.' These women impacted me greatly as an actress.

Angela Bettis - I can't say enough about her. She is just an incredible presence. She is very petite and soft, while she still has this power that floats around her.

'Hellraiser' was the first horror film I ever saw, so it will always be a favorite.

When I do theatre in New York, I typically only get cast in comedy.

I don't have much power to make many films, but I do have the power in what roles I choose.

A little bit of neurosis is OK as a performer, but untethered, it can tear one apart.

It's kind of wild for me any time anybody says, 'I love this movie with Lauren Ashley Carter. I'm going to watch all her other movies,' because that's exactly the way I feel as a fan of other actors.

I love film very much. It's very special to me, and seeing how it all turns out is always just a magical moment for me.
