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.

I'm a pretty psycho-obsessed shrink.
Robert Englund

But it's mostly about pacing yourself when you do these movies.
Robert Englund
Image
I don't choose roles. I go where I'm wanted.

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.

I loved horror since I was a kid.

Arguably, the Venice Film Festival is the second best film festival in the world, after Cannes.

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.
