“Often when filming a scene I would give the
editor the choice of a dark moment or a laugh. For better or worse, most of the
laughs stayed in. Also, it is easier to scare the audience if you catch them
off guard. Humor and horror go hand in hand for that reason. Critics are always
going to criticize something, right?”
-Robert Englund discusses Freddy, and how he went
from “horror” to “humor” in the original A Nightmare on Elm Street
film series, during an interview with
Jason Spraggins at Yahoo Voices.com. (2010).
