Kane Warren Hodder Quotes

• Attitude is everything when it comes to the character. I’m real natural when it comes to looking scary. If you’re not seriously trying to frighten people, then the fear these movies are intended to generate doesn’t come across. I truly try to scare the shit out of people all the time. Between takes, in the make-up trailer, you never know when I’m going to scare you.
• [when asked about being a stunt double for actors getting paid a fortune) Not only do they get paid millions of dollars, but then they go on talk shows and say they did all their own stunts. That happens all the time. I’ve seen actors from movies I’ve worked saying they did all their own stunts. There is no actor who does all their own stunts, period. Don’t listen to any of them. They may do a few of them. Not even Jackie Chan. He probably does the most stunts [himself], though.
• [when asked about the ending of Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan (1989)] That was the scene I disliked most, where Jason turns into a little boy at the end of Part VIII. Somehow in Rob Hedden’s mind, I think, it was a valid ending and he knew what he wanted, but I don’t think it was presented so that people could understand it. I hated that whole ending. And I fought it to the bitter end, but I was overruled. That’s why I pushed to ignore that ending when we began Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday (1993).
• [commenting on his exclusion from Freddy vs. Jason (2003)] I won’t be unemployed. But I will resent the hell out of the fact that somebody else is wearing that mask.
• [when asked his thoughts on Jason’s look in Freddy vs. Jason (2003), in which he did not play Jason] I guess they wanted Jason to look like a skinny little bitch this time.

Ironically, Kane said that he actually had difficulty pulling the original stunt off because the dummy that was in the bag was heavier than he thought it would be, so he had to re-shoot the scene over and over again because no matter how hard he swung the bag the director kept telling him it didn’t look right.

As he was walking someone approached him and asked if he was with the movie. He didn’t reply, because he thought it was a pretty stupid question to ask, as he was standing there in full Jason costume. The man asked again, Kane took a little lunge for the guy and grunted.
