More quotes by Robert Englund
Yeah, snakes. They're my fear factor.
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
I'm a pretty psycho-obsessed shrink.
Robert Englund
Kids today don't watch a black and white movie.
Robert Englund
I love new questions.
Robert Englund
I don't choose roles. I go where I'm wanted.
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 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.

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.
Robert Englund
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 do genre films because I like them, or because I need the money.
Robert Englund
I think I am a little too old now.
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
You have to get your hands dirty. You've got to really deliver the goods, and when you do, you can get something really special.
Robert Englund
I love the fans, and I respect the fans, and I want them to go out and support movies.
Robert Englund
I am constantly seeing new horror that I like.
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
The cowboy movies is not our go-to programmer anymore, here's a horror film.
Robert Englund
I'd like to see a slasher movie set in the depression.
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.
