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.

More quotes by Robert Englund
We used to take girls to scary movies all the time, I don't know about you, but that was the place we would go for dates.
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 has been very good to me in my career. Doing horror films is for the fans and helps keep that part of my career alive.

Robert Englund
Everybody underestimated the universality of the concept of a nightmare or a bad dream.
Robert Englund

Robert Englund
I love new questions.
Robert Englund
Let's kill somebody to Sinatra! Or to early Elvis!

American Horror Story on cable now, it is terrific. There has to be room to re-invent.
Robert Englund
I think I am a little too old now.
Robert Englund
I have friends in New York that won't leave New York, and they're really talented people, but they'd rather take an acting class in New York than do a play in Florida or Boston. That's just weird to me, but they get into that I've-got-to-be-in-the-center-of-the-universe mentality. I'm not that way.
Robert Englund
I don't choose roles. I go where I'm wanted.
Robert Englund
I liked girls with pale skin because I am a California boy, tanned and blonde hair.
Robert Englund
Sometimes we spend our money on something we think is gonna be great, and the titles shall remain nameless, but they're just a little disappointing.
Robert Englund
I'm not surfing every day, so I'm not in that good of a shape, and when I paddle, I might get caught in the impact zone and get my world rocked pretty good.
