When I was 9, I went to a birthday party. We were supposed to see a cowboy movie, but the programming got screwed up and we saw 'The Bad Seed' instead. Horrifying. For years I was frightened of girls with pigtails.

More quotes by Robert Englund
There's a lot of dark horror, and a lot of sci-fi fantasy that's great, but what gets hyped a lot the big stuff. The most expensive stuff gets hyped a lot, and I love it, don't get me wrong, but there's things that fall through the cracks.
Robert Englund
If you don't invest in the characters, you don't care if they get killed. It's more fun if you know them.
Robert Englund
I hate these actresses-pretending-to-be-lesbians movies. To me, that's just as prurient as a bad violent movie.
Robert Englund
But it's mostly about pacing yourself when you do these movies.
Robert Englund
I think I am a little too old now.

I actually sing horribly, but I used to dance pretty good. I was a gymnast, and you can usually use those gymnastic tricks with dance. Plus, they're so much fun to do. That wasn't really a big part of my career. It was just a phase.
Robert Englund
I think that what's happened is that there's been a rediscovery of some good old-school films and a realization that there's always a place for them. We don't have to outgrow them with the new technology and we can do them with it and we can do them without it. We shouldn't always have the demands made on us to do it.

I've watched people who were better actors than me disappear, and they're selling insurance now.
Robert Englund
I know there really is someone out there for everyone.
Robert Englund
I loved horror since I was a kid.
Robert Englund
The last time we had Freddy in reality was part two and Freddy sort of went out on his own.
Robert Englund
There's a depth to the nightmare, to the symbolism you can exploit, on an intellectual level, on a sexual level, on a primal, violent level, and I think all of those things together are just great. They're the spice and ingredients in the menu of the horror movie, and I think that's why we'll be around for a long time.
Robert Englund
Horror movies travel pretty well anyway. They're like action movies: People overseas can watch them and enjoy them, and they're not so culturally specific in terms of their references, and they can follow a good scary story.
Robert Englund
I would like to see the technology used to explore more period horror genre works, for example, E. A. Poe.
Robert Englund
I know actors that were on great television shows that got cancelled and they have never done anything that good since.
Robert Englund
I love new questions.
Robert Englund
I have friends that are much better actors than I am that had to quit the business because they couldn't survive the auditions or the rejections, or people just didn't realize how good they were.
Robert Englund
I was quite a snob when I was a theatre actor earlier in my career.
Robert Englund
I am constantly seeing new horror that I like.
Robert Englund
I'm an actor. Actors are supposed to act.
