More quotes by Robert Englund
When you're an actor and you can set your arm on fire, you feel kind of magical.
Robert Englund
I may be a B-movie star, but I work. I'm an actor.
Robert Englund
Who would know that by playing a nerdy alien and a child killer, I would have a 30-year career in Hollywood? I've outlasted so many people.

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.

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.

Robert Englund
In a great horror movie, you've gotta have some character development and you've gotta set some of your people up and you've gotta have a little back story going. You've gotta take that time for exposition.
Robert Englund
I get a lot of teenagers going, 'Yo, Krueger,' and honking their horn and giving me the claw. Yeah, I'm recognized.
Robert Englund
The cowboy movies is not our go-to programmer anymore, here's a horror film.
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.
Robert Englund
I'm kind of like a combination of a red herring and a fake-out.
Robert Englund
The last time we had Freddy in reality was part two and Freddy sort of went out on his own.
Robert Englund
I've watched people who were better actors than me disappear, and they're selling insurance now.
Robert Englund
I'm an actor. Actors are supposed to act.
