There's plenty of great stuff out there. I think it's just what we do is we all spend our allowance on the thing that we're told is going to be the big event, and sometimes the big event is disappointing.
Robert Englund
Image
Everybody underestimated the universality of the concept of a nightmare or a bad dream.
Robert Englund
Image
I hate these actresses-pretending-to-be-lesbians movies. To me, that's just as prurient as a bad violent movie.

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.

I love the idea of comedy in horror. I think this should be allowed.

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
Image
I don't rush out the first day to see every horror movie, but I do keep up on them, because I want to talk intelligently with the fans about them.

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. But there is always a time and a place for the subsets within genres.
Robert Englund

I'm kind of like a combination of a red herring and a fake-out.
Robert Englund
Image
Many great horror stories are period pieces and English actors have a facility for historic characters.
Robert Englund
Image
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.

All my old surfing injuries have kind of come back to haunt me.

I'd like to see a slasher movie set in the depression.

I am constantly seeing new horror that I like.

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.
