    I was lucky enough to meet him in November. Got him to sign both my Freddy glove and his autobiography. Got a photo with him, too.

    Johnny Depp 😊 the 1st bigger movie 🎥 I guess he was in...and when I later saw him on screen, since then I love him 😂...and I knew, he was dropped on this Earth, too, lol 😂
    Wow time flies!
    I love to hear, he was polite!
    Oh boy...but I don't like horror movies. But I remember, when I watched this movie and saw him sinking into the bed, I actually had to laugh hard lmao 😂

    Scariest thing about the 1st Freddy movie to me was his voice changing from creepy neighbor when chasing Tina at the beginning (Tina!!!Watch this) to a demonic creature from Hell when chasing Nancy ("I'm here") almost like he gotten stronger after every kill...

    Yeah yeah no one will ever touch Robert Englund as Freddy but we have to find someone to carry the torch because Freddy and Elm Street need to live on and be enjoyed by future generations.
