Melissa Auf der Maur

I don't like to be afraid. I'm afraid every day, all the time.

I love big budgeted, epic rock landscapes. That's what turns me on.

This planet Earth, the act of putting a roof over our heads, our flesh and blood existence, it's all very temporary.

I'm a big action junkie. I grew up on the '80s action movies - the bad ones and the good ones.

I hate the bad rap that people give my parents. Because they are just parents, really, at the end of the day trying to stand up for their daughter and themselves.

What was always interesting about Thomas Harris' books is they were a wonderful hybridization of a crime thriller and a horror movie.
