The guy that got scared in the restaurant. You have to keep in mind that this was during the filming of the FIRST film. Which means that the world knew nothing of Freddy Krueger yet. That guy may have literally been the first person to ever get scared of Freddy.
He said he busted in and everything went flying. Some reason everyone forgets that he said that.
@@ordinarypete what are you on about
@@ordinarypete huh? are you okay? you're not having a stroke are you?
Lies again? New England
@Black & White haha that's so made up. Wes only wrote parts of the script in part 3 and didn't make another Freddy movie until New Nightmare. David Miller designed the original make up for part one and left to work on other projects after the first one became a success. Kevin Yahger took over the Freddy makeup for parts 2 & 3. Kevin had to create a different more simple design because he found David Millers original makeup too complicated since it was put on in layers. idk where you got the idea that burn victims protested the movie. Never heard of this before ever.
Met him once. Super nice, incredibly articulate, and an amazing story teller.
Robert Englund never curses in front of an audience. He's always polite asking if there are any children in the audience. He said funky music.
He's VERY respectful to the audience and he's a very respectable classy man.. he doesn't usually walk around cursing just cause. Not everyone sewers every 3rd word any way.
This man has been around for a very long time . he is a classicly trained actor.
He's just a nice classy dignified man. He's a rare breed.
Funky music are the lyrics... so what's your point?
@@AcesPlace22 that he asked if there are children watching for literally saying that
I remember kids cussing like sailors back in the day.
He tried to say Funky but he mispoke. He did curse on Conan.
Fun fact: Robert Englund had recently said at a convention that the New Nightmare Freddy was his favorite makeup and favorite movie of the series. It's my favorite design too. What a badass look. The long coat, ripped flesh, bone hand, muscular body, small pupils, and rotting smile. It's a look I wished we'd see in future movies.
i love how even the hat is green. he almost looks like a 90's comicbook design for freddy.. even more than super freddy did.
that was my fav freddy look, i loved that bone to flesh and blades hand, and that black trench coat
This Halloween I decided to watch New nightmare again because, unlike the previous elm street movies, I hadn't seen it in a long time. I fell asleep not too long after watching it and I had a nightmare with Freddy in it!! Now Freddy horrified me as a child but of course as I got older I stopped being frightened. So it surprised me to have a dream like that😂😂😂New nightmare was so scary, Wes Craven directed the two scariest films out of the series!! I hate that Robert can't play Freddy anymore and I hate that Wes is gone!!
I loved new nightmare, loved the make up. It was perfect.
The look of part 3 was perfect imo. New Nightmare was like a comic book version of Freddy
I did hear a funny story once about Robert where he fell asleep with his Freddy make up on and he woke up and looked in the mirror and it scared the hell out of him lol Also his real voice and his evil person dont match up haha.
It was actually stated that he is one of the nicest people there is even donating to charities and his character doesn’t match him lol
@@SpeedyWings2323 Also the other thing is that he's like a classically trained actor.
He said in a interview that they lower and double his voice in editing for it to sound like that
@@richardhunt6310 makes sense to make him sound more demonic
The funny thing about Robert is that he's a major talker. He talks, and talks, and talks, talks...and the more he talks, the more animated he becomes, and at some point in his chatter, he's GOING to naturally do something Freddy-esque with either his voice or facial expression.
This is so true! Freddy comes out in certain moments
He's a Gemini. They're great communicators. And also the #1 star sign of the most actors, and the most serial killers.
@@sarkissamuel Omg! I was literally about to say that! Great minds think alike. I'm a huge fan of Robert Englund and imagine me delight when I learned that he's a Gemini when I was a kid. My fiance and I are Gemini as well, and we talk a lot and we love doing impressions. 😆 ♊️
Had a photo with him at a comic-con. He put the glove over my face for the pic. Scared the crap outta me, and made my lifelong dream a reality. True gent of my nightmares 🤣🤣
“PLAY THAT FUNKY MUSIC, *WHITE BOY!*” lmao he’s great, love em
Freddy is the coolest of all the movie killers his character is timeless 😀
Krueger is a killer with style.
Mick Taylor wants a word.
He won that fight
@@jerramaurice7836facts, that’s true.
When Freddy says "Play the music" , you play the f ing Music...
New Nightmare is underrated. It did the whole meta horror thing a few years before Scream.
I saw Robert on Broadway walking in front of my building. I looked @ him he was looking back & I simply gave him a thumbs up. He smiled & put up his thumb hello. Very cool.
Met him a couple times. Such a great man
I love Robert Englund. I met him a few years back. He’s honestly one of the nicest people I’ve met.
*edited bc autocorrect changed Englund to England.
Reallly?
I’m just waiting for some stupid person to absolutely disagree with you in disbelief as if it ever happened. For no reason people always have to feel like everything everyone says is a lie
@@MrJonathanhidalgo365 yes. I met him and his wife at a horror movie convention. They were the sweetest couple. He doesn’t rush his fans. He has a genuine conversation with them. He even drew a picture of Freddy on a painting I brought that I did of Freddy from New Nightmare.
@@Dizzydawne same. Ppl can be ridiculous.
Same I met him on Sept 26 of this year! He was so sweet! I got a autograph and a photo op
His normal voice sounds nothing like I thought it would. Way softer and nicer.
Like he’s actually a person. Weird.
He sounds fruity af xD
It’s cuz they masked his real voice with a demonic like tone
@@predtr18 Lmao he does a bit, doesn't he?
@@UnchainedMelodie92 His mannerisms as well.
I still remember him as Willie - the nice & soft spoken alien on the early 80’s tv series “V”. Then he did a complete 180 & played Freddy Kreuger. What a contrast in characters. Haha.
I love Robert Englund.. Such an awesome down to earth guy! 😃
The caption guy getting it wrong at 3:32: it's "funky" lol
Freddy Krueger definitely freaked me out when I was young! Thanks for sharing this interview with Robert England Team Coco ❤🖤
did he really say “probably just got off the boat?” lol
Before cancel culture would crucify a person for any little thing they said.
Yes, but this was back when you could still make innocuous jokes without leftist mobs torching your career.
it's the 90's, nobody cared.....
I love Robert England I saw his name and clicked on right away....I love him Freddy but I love him more as Willy🥰🥰
First character I think of when it comes to Mr. Englund, is Willy!!!!
I love Robetr engnd l saW his name and clicкed on right away .... I love him Freddy but l love him. more as will 🎬🎥. 🥰🥰❤️💕
@@Оляпереплелиця38летПерепелиця I'm not sure what you're doing but if you need attention that's not gonna get you much other than from me. That really wasn't clever or funny. Try to be better next time
Willy? 🤔
@@winkmurder an alien he played in a sci-if show called V
There will never be another Freddy and this era of Conan was still a bit underground and never reached these heights again . Max you are sorely missed man.
Robert Englund goes everywhere as Freddy Krueger
Except for this interview...so not "everywhere".
@@RuggsvilleCounty You missed the joke, lol.
One of my favorite Robert Englund's roles was in the original MacGyver tv show. He was one of the most believable characters I've ever seen in that show. Peace and love y'all 🤟
I loved his friendly alien character in the V TV-show back in the early-mid '80s just before he went on to do the first Nightmare movie
Thank you for telling me that. Now I can check it out ❤️
@@shruggzdastr8-facedclown Yes, that's what I remember him most from
Love Freddy's laugh , perfect.
I believe Conan misunderstood what Robert screamed out there 😄
How?
It was certainly scary for the censors
He said play that funky music white boy like the song but Conan thought he said the f word. Conan should’ve known better.
@@MayaState We're going to go and edit that part out of the show.
I replayed that portion two dozen times. I watched his face muscles very carefully. He pronounced it *funk-ing* but the n was very, very softly. So, yes he did make an effort to scare the censors. But the fact it's on here unedited suggests it passed....barely.
Freddy Kruger the best scary character of all time
2:18 "He probably just got off the boat" (audience reaction)
This was ten years after the original " A Nightmare on Elm Street" was released in theaters.
Yes. It was for the tie in with Wes Craven's New Nightmare.
Robert you are super cute and so down to earth they don't make people like you anymore or like Conan wishing you guys all the best in life may God bless both of you and your families
As someone that works in a restraunt, I would literally cry.
It's hard to believe that this is Freddy, he's so nice and polite. That just shows how good an actor he
Robert played a great part with Al Bundy!!!!!!!! His best role ever!!!!!
Not gonna lie, Conan with the less famous actors is fantastic. Where else do you get to interview horror film actors? That's fantastic.
Robert as Freddy is a LEGEND!! Gave me nightmares like no other growing up, nothing could match the terror.
The terror? Its hilarious
Nothing worse than thinking you've woke up just to find yourself in another nightmare! They definitely covered it all in the series.
The ONLY Freddy Kruger.
3:32 such a great moment to share with fans, hes just so soft spoken you have to turn your volume all the way up to hear it.
Its okay, thankfully he's still with us
I think I know why Freddy never sleeps ❄️
you scared me alright… i thought he died.. then i remembered it’s Halloween
"It's how I get the cheese balls (using the Freddy hand/finger knives)." 🤣🤣
Met him once. Nice guy.
The crowd is really dead on this one.
Classic Freddy
Sad the guys a legend
The man that made it SCARY to fall asleep......
He kinda reminds me a little bit of Quentin Tarintino the way he talks
I never realized how much Conan’s head had grown lol
LMFAO!
He did say funky.
I would absolutely love to meet Robert Englund. He is just so fascinating and hilarious.
I was at a restaurant called El Coyote in L.A. in fall of 1988. M Godfather and I were sitting in the lobby waiting for our table to be ready. I saw Robert Englund at the bar having a drink with a female. I recognized him immediately, not just because of Freddy Krueger, but because he played Willie in the tv miniseries “V.” I wanted to get his autograph but I was a little star struck. All it took for me to get it, was for my Godfather to ask me if I was chicken. I’d just graduated from college that summer. I’d just started teaching second grade. So the only piece of paper that I had with me that day was a brochure for my Tax Shelter Annuity (TSA) which I’d just signed up for. That’s what I handed him to sign. It reads : To Eileen, “Sweet Dreams, Freddy” Robert Englund. He was very sweet, polite, and soft spoken. 🙂
OG Freddy.. Love it.. One of the best modern era horror actors.
I love his since of humor
I saw a video years ago of a person telling Robert Englund that Englund gave him real nightmares as Freddie.
His response was "Thank you"
Can anyone else can remember that video or is that some Mandela Effect stuff?
My god -Conan without his signature hair - he looks so much like a dork of the 80's
I hope Robert England plays Freddy in the next movie
I didn't know he could be funny.love how proper he seems to be.
Hes a legitimate actooooor, and just the absolute sweetest ever. Love robert, hes such a genuienly lovely guy
Robert is very charismatic and funny. He really brought Freddy to life!!!
He looks little bit like Ryan Stiles on this video.
I still think of him as the bartender from V.
Mousy…
Conan is the best to ever do it.
I would like to go Dress as Michael Myers to a fancy restaurant
Such a class actor.
"Just"... "Just?" Yeah, Robert, we remember "Willie" from "V: The miniseries!"
Johnny Depp and Freddy Krueger walk into a restaurant. Sounds about right haha. 80s were awesome n wish I got to experience them.
All I can think of is he was one of my favorite characters on V.. Good old Willy ❤️
Hey look it’s Freddy Krueger dressed as Robert Englund.
I remember seeing who the actor was behind Fred Krueger in a newspaper photo and was pleasantly surprised how personable he looked. Later I recognised him from his previous work.
With all the new technology Im positive they can come out with a new Nightmare on Elm St. for this generation that would do AMAZING!
That would be cool if they had Freddie out after dark just scaring the hell out these kids nowadays LIVE.
They already did. 10ish years ago.
@@Atomic_Johnny tried, they tried...
“Probably just got off the boat”
Things you can’t say anymore for $800
I was thinking the same thing lol
Considering the context it's fine, some woke moron would get upset but they'd get upset at anything
At least the restaurant didn't have to supply KNIVES !
The dish washers thank him for that !!
Was Conan born on Mars? Or, did he live in a cave? The song is "Play that FUNKY MUSIC, White boy". Everyone knows that disco song, since the 1970's🙄
Freddy lives!
He said "FUNKING". Robert Englund is GOD.
I love Robert, i fell in love with his character Willie on TV Show "V" AKA Visitors. I loved him as Freddy Kruger in the first film,
i could not watch any more of the movies after the first one, it scared me to much to watch the other ones. 😄
The adorable lizard guy ✌🏼
3:30 Robert suddenly turns into a crackhead
Where the rest of the interview? Don't leave us hanging Team Coco
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 The next time Robert Englund come to Steel City Comic Con I'm going just to hear stories at the Q and A panel
That is an absolutely fantastic amount of b. s. for such an unbelievably well known character.
happy 75th birthday robert barton englund !!!
Robert as Freddy was my child hood I grew up in the 80's and 90's I still remember the first time i watched nightmare on elm street it was playing on TV and my dad was watching it I was supposed to asleep but I wanted a drink and I caught it on TV and I was hooked my dad caught me and just looked at me watching the movie and chuckled and picked me up and sat on the couch with me and watched it until I was sleeping and he cared me to my bed and I never had a nightmare
this was aired after wes craven's new nightmare because he film came out on october 14, 1994 and this episode was aired on halloween 2 weeks later
Metal legend comic con 20o7! He a great guy to talk to a legend!!!!
2:45 - He said, _"troll"._ This was in 1994, this is the earliest use of that word that I heard with the same definition it has today, i.e. _internet trolls._ I never heard someone use the word _"troll"_ until the 2010s in the social media era.. My comment means nothing, I just found that interesting.
Salute to the legend, Robert Englund.
OMG, Conan looks like a senator running for office....lol. Very handsome in his younger days. Mind you he's still easy on the eye these days.
The King of the slashers! Freddy!
Robert is a legend. Would love 2 meet him one day ! xx
He seems like a nice guy.
He's very very nice
He's very sweet. I met him on Sept 26th of this year. He was so kind! I got an autograph and a photo op. He said Sweet dreams to me after we were just leaving. Which was really sweet!
The legend. Salute.
Conan must be immortal. Hasn't aged a bit.
This is from 1994
10/31/94 - Last time we saw and heard Robert Englund
Freddie gave me such nightmares, weird to say, but I really enjoy a scary dream, and Freddie was part of a lot of them as a kid. Still love the Nightmare On Elm St movie and following sequels
Ahhh here it is, John Deacon’s doppelgänger
can we get full length classic shows in this channel i think NBC or who ever owned those episodes should give it to conan i only know englund from the freddy movies, and no one can do freddy better than him, but when i do see him guest star in a show, or is in a movie, it does put a smile on my face.
The captions are incorrect, he says "Funky" not "Fucking". I initially heard fucking too, probably due to the captions but I found that if I played it black with my eyes closed I could clearly hear him say Funky.
2:45 holy crap, extremely early use of the word "troll" here in 1994.
For all we know, trolling could have been used heavily back then, but we wouldn't have known it as well because we didn't have the internet or social media.
The word gaslighting has been around forever, and yet ever since The Invisible Man remake was released, everybody keeps using that word as if it was just created.
@@Dude-oh8vq I was are of gas lighting being a term for many decades (I thought it came from a classic book, don't remember).
I've only known troll to be used as a verb online since I was a teen in the early 2000's but now I'm going to look up the origins.
It could very well be a word that Robert pulled up on the spot, much like impish is used as an adjective for mischief or prank.
Very cool to hear someone say troll before the internet took off.
He was a guest star on knight Rider
I love robert
I wish he was my family
One of my cool stories is being on the set of Nightmare Dream Child, mine was the hand that fires the gun in close-up, they needed that shot and didn't get it with the original actor. I got stoned in the bathroom on set and got to talk to Robert dressed as Freddy while I was stoned about tripping on shrooms at Joshua Tree, which I did that very same weekend.
Five Guys at Freddy's.
I'll get my coat..
"fresh of the boat". Wow!
My man💚
Who would've left his food without paying, ME!
