Robert Englund Zitate – Sprüche auf Englisch mit Übersetzung

Zitat des Tages von Robert Englund:

I did a lot of stuff before I became known for horror. I did a lot of small films in the '70s, in all kinds of styles. I worked with all kinds of people when I was just starting out: I was incredibly lucky.

I wouldn't want the pressure of a Six Feet Under or the pressure of improvising like Curb Your Enthusiasm.

Robert Englund

I'm an actor. Actors are supposed to act.

Robert Englund

I always serve the writer first because I'm English trained, even though I'm American.

Robert Englund

But it's mostly about pacing yourself when you do these movies.

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 didn't make good money on 'Nightmare' until part three. I eventually got some nice merchandising checks.

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.

Robert Englund

Jeff Bridges taught me a lot about how to keep a scene fresh.

Robert Englund

I'd rather be Vincent Price than a red-neck character actor. You can't predict what will happen.

Robert Englund

Most of my nightmares involve me forgetting my lines in a stage play.

Robert Englund

I used to drive up from theatre in Michigan to Stratford, Ontario to watch every show. I idolized the actors from Stratford. I was very influenced by them because they would come down and work at my theatre and get time on their American Equity union cards.

Robert Englund

Gosh, I'd like to direct Our Town on stage.

Robert Englund

I think there's a time and place to watch an independent film, or catch up on a French action film on your laptop, or Netflix it, or download it, or watch it on-demand. But I think we also have to maintain the sacredness of the movie theatre as church - especially with event screenings.

Robert Englund

Many great horror stories are period pieces and English actors have a facility for historic characters.

Robert Englund

I always get inspiration from whatever characters say about my character.

Robert Englund

I'm a big fan of Brian De Palma's 'Sisters,' and I also love 'Let The Right One In.'

Robert Englund

If they do something like that, maybe a Freddy Krueger fan, a girl, a really sick goth girl starts killing kids herself and Freddy has to put a stop to it, or they have to fight it out.

Robert Englund

As a result of playing Freddy Krueger, I can remember having to look at some medical books, and at some of the disfigurement that fire can cause on people, because they were the source material for some of the prosthetic makeup that I wore. That aided and abetted this fear of death by fire. Which is sort of what happened to Fred Krueger.

Robert Englund

I sat in the barber's chair in David Miller's makeup shop, hours and hours of trial and error. While David poked at me with his crusty brushes, I grew more and more profane. That's how I started to find the voice of Freddy.

Robert Englund

I think superheroes today are like whistle blowers.

Robert Englund

Kids today don't watch a black and white movie.

Robert Englund

Any film you make is a crap shoot.

Robert Englund

I would like to see the technology used to explore more period horror genre works, for example, E. A. Poe.

Robert Englund

Death by plane crash scares me. I travel a lot, and when you hit turbulence, and post 9/11, that's in the back of my mind a bit.

Robert Englund

'Nightmare on Elm Street' really lends itself to using new technologies. CGI would be a great way to exploit and embrace the dream sequences.

Robert Englund

It's real simple - we all have nightmares, and the idea you can be in real jeopardy in them is a great gimmick. It's universal.

Robert Englund

There'll always be movies that are meant for the big screen, and they should be seen that way.

Robert Englund

I went to see a children's matinee at the movie theatre one summer, but at some point they had changed to the grown up movie in the late afternoon, and I ended up seeing this movie called 'The Bad Seed.' It just terrified me.

Robert Englund

The technologies of convenience are making our sphere of exploration and experience smaller.

Robert Englund

I know there's a certain love and affection for the homemade on the Internet, and I'm all for that, too, and I appreciate it in alternative music, and I appreciate it in B-movies and in Sundance, independent films.

Robert Englund

I have an Italian comedy at the Venice Film Festival.

Robert Englund

I was on the cusp - or thought I was on the cusp - of celebrity, the result of starring as an adorable curly-haired alien in the miniseries 'V' on NBC. 'V' was a hit, and then got green-lit as a series. During the hiatus, the only job I auditioned for that fit my schedule was 'Nightmare on Elm Street.' That's the real reason I said yes.

Robert Englund

I did a lot of stuff before I became known for horror. I did a lot of small films in the '70s, in all kinds of styles. I worked with all kinds of people when I was just starting out: I was incredibly lucky.

Robert Englund

Horror does better when it's bubbling under. It's a niche. It doesn't like the limelight.

Robert Englund

I do genre films because I like them or because I need the money. I make a star's salary when I do horror because I can still open a movie in Italy or Spain or Germany.

Robert Englund

You're going to have to surrender a little bit to the contrivance of how Freddy and Jason get together.
