Robert Englund is such an expressive, charismatic figure as well as a fantastic storyteller, I could sit and listen to him all day. Thanks for posting this gem, among others, Mr. Garris!
His silhouette on that first movie was so iconic. That shadow was terrifying as hell.
In nightmare 3 too. In the hall with the wizard master!
His silhouette on that first movie was so iconoc. That shadow was terrifying as hell.
Freddy will always be my favorite. Robert seems like an awesome guy. Very handsome too..
What a great man and a very nice man too.
@Classical Music11 Agreed Robert Englund is a Awesome Storyteller!
Oh yeah i met him at walker stalker con in denver and he was such a friendly, nice man. He was so open and he talked to you like he knew you his whole life.
Without the prosthetic makeup? He can put on the hat, sweater, pants, glove- the whole outfit and, still send shivers down your spine.
Absolutely yes 💯 %
Truth.
Mick Garris is the perfect interviewer: Ask very good questions and then be a very good listener -- and when the interviewed by himself want to discuss some topic, he is very intelligent, knowingly -- and says things that the interviewed can give an even deeper answer on. Being a good interviewer is always to set the focus on the interviewed and et the best out from him or her -- never to try so shine yourself.
Thanks for the very kind words.
Never knew he basically saved the hat. Good call, Rob.
Robert England is the best Freddy. He can scare you and make you laugh at the same time!
Robert englund voice is relaxing man , he should do asmr ....the irony of him being freddy would automatically put as the number 1
Robert you and my dad are 100% alike . The same characteristics,loved to talk to people .Such a sweet heart. When I was younger I remember coming home from school my dressed up like Freddy and he told me one day we would meet you . January 8 th 2,018 he died . We never got to meet you .His brother died on Aug.22 Nd. 2,018 2 days before my dad’s birthday.
Jessica Coy My deepest condolences. Thanks for your very kind words. Robert is a great guy, and it’s good to hear from you. Sending you my best wishes.
Sorry about your dad
As the new Freddy Krueger
I can do Freddy's demonic voice naturally
It doesn't need to be dubbed over like Robert's voice.
Hands down I'm the actor they've been looking for to fill Robert Englund's shoes.🎸🎸🎸🤘🤘🤘🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲💫💫💫
Robert englund was my era 80s were cool
Yes my era as well 80s we're cool the best horror movies ever these kids these days will never know
You can't unsee Freddy in him. He has the inbuilt framework of the character.
The hat is part of the getup and it's so unsettling.
I miss all of those old freddy movies sm 😔 absolutely love this video wish I had seen it sooner.
Im 41 this LEGEND is My Era's Boris Karloff,Peter Cushing,Christopher Lee.
I just love that Freddy is good friends with Norm from Cheers.
What a lovely man he is!
I watch all the nightmare on elm street even the new remake. No one could play freddy like robert england did. He made the freddy feel so alive. I hearx there another one coming up. And i think u should play him again
part 2 was the best make up
So Krueger and Norm from cheers were hanging in the 80s... insane!
Robert englund is the kind of actor who is not stuck up and not bragging or basically an a****** like a lot of celebrities are he is the kind of guy that will talk to you and talk not more or less about everything and anything but he'll listen to you and as fans he loves them and that's what I really respect about him because you know he's genuinely the one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet I met him a long time ago and you know he was truly epic.
He wasn't stuck up he wasn't a jerk he wasn't an a****** he was just one of the kindest man you'll ever meet and he was just a regular guy who played Freddy Krueger and when I met him I was just like oh my God I can't believe I'm going to meet the man who you know gave me nightmares and he was just so kind and it's just amazing that 90% of the celebrities in Hollywood are complete assholes let's face it they are but there are that 10% that really are kind and caring and really love the fans and don't phone it in you know I'm sure Robert gets so tired of answering the same questions over and over again but he never ever complains ever.
I mean he played Freddy Krueger seven eight times I believe it was and actually a little bit more than that and it's including the TV series which is I don't know why the hell they never released it they should it they need to but he never complained I think he's done over a hundred movies right now easily and you know I don't say this normally about all celebrities but he deserves a star on the Walk of Fame for what he's done for the horror community for what he's done for all the fans who care about him and how honest he is and how much he cares about us he deserves that he really does
I agree. 😘
Wonderful interview
@laura valentina I Love Robert Englund One of My Favorite Horror Actors!
Vince Niederman he is my favorite actor also great personality too
@laura valentina Nice and Agreed I Have The Book of His "Hollywood Monster" Which is My Non Favorite Sports Book LOL!
Robert created himself as a fictional character thats awesome and hard as he'll to do
Robert Englund is so handsome, charming and charismatic. I would so marry him. 😍
Mick nailed it. It is because of Robert's unique features coming through the makeup as an actor. Probably also because ppl are familiar with the original Freddy Krueger. That helps a lot. But not always.
A re-make is never going to work because nobody has Englund's unique features and charisma/body language. Like they said in the interview, Freddy has more personality than any other monster
@@ryanjacobson2508 Robert also said that movies never do remakes. That there is not enough interest in a remake. Only sequels. That applies across the board. So it's not up for question😉. But I agree with what you said about his unique character that made Freddy iconic.
(2022) The fact that he mentions no one would think he’s Harrison Ford with the hat aged so we’ll. Cos two days ago Freddy trended on Twitter cos a picture of Indian Jones was released and everyone thought it was a teaser to a new Freddy movie.
I think Dracula was the first monster with a personality.
In Mary Shelley's novel, Frankenstein's monster had a very distinct and somewhat philosophical personality. I don't disagree (that Dracula had a personality): I just dispute the fact that he was *the first* .
Best wishes.
COOL POST MORTEM: INTERVIEW WITH ROBERT ENGLUND PART II !!!!
Robert and my own father favors so much...so I think thats what made me a huge fan...made me able to no longer be afraid of Freddy. My father is a darkskin black man with the nose and slight features of Robert....I always wondered ith that curly hair, does he have a black grandparent lol
Incredible interview
Great interview! It really gives deeper into most of the other interviews I’ve seen on Englund. Awesome job! What a great guy. 👍🏻
Man thanks!
he’s so articulate
mick garris great horror director too from the 80s
Whats weird is out of all the costume stores and halloween stores, i have never seen a single one that had a hat that came even close to how the movie one was haha it just fit englund and him only
Really enjoyed this
Great Interview
I love Robert england…
Me Too and I Have His Book As Well Also I Read The Book Whenever I Want To!
Freddy Kruger was my child hood hero, batman who? Superman what? NO FREDDY!!!
i wish they talked more about willie on v. he was unforgettable on that.
help me Nancy save me from FREDDY!!!
I am a HUGE freddy fan!!
I absolutely Love Freddy's comedy! The last nightmare on elm street with the new guy... First time I saw it... I hated it because not only did they add back into the script that he was a child molester (which they took out of the originals) they also stripped the comedy right out of it too and substituted with him constantly explaining angeryly why he was doing his killing. It took a bit of time for me to seperate one from the other. If It wasn't for the child molester part in the new one... I would like it now.
Long live Freddy Krueger
He reminds me a lot of Quentin Tarantino when he speaks with his enthusiasm and passion for his role but without the pretention of Quentin.
Quentin has a very annoying voice, Robert has a trained actor's voice that's easy to listen to.
@@ryanjacobson2508 Why Does Quentin Tarantino Have a Annoying Voice Unlike Robert Englund?
He aint lying about the shadow and the hat and demeanor of freddy, could of been such a bust if another person was cast and they did some stupid monster type shit.
They started Elm Street 2 without Robert. The stunt-man playing Freddy was so horrible that they fired him and got Robert back.
My mom had a newspaper article about him. He was married it was a picture oh him and his wife and his kids they said he dosent have kids
Robert is a great supporter of indie film and he kindly did the trailer for my first ever film Attic Entity . Check it out ua-cam.com/video/As1Y4lDEdpw/v-deo.html Also you can find my film on the Kishere Film Channel! Mr Englund is a nice dude :)
No Freddy has true personality
2:21 sorry kid, I don't believe in fairy tales.
