Robert Englund
"Robert Barton Englund (born June 6, 1947) is an American actor, best known for playing the fictional serial killer F Reddy Krueger, in the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise.
He received a Saturn Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor for A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors in 1987 and A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master in 1988.
Despite his reputation for appearing in exploitative horror films, Englund is a classically trained actor."
However the movies from 1995 onwards are B-rated.
It would seem that he can only find work in imitation 'horror' moives which hope to have some c Redit by association to his PAST glory s.
So as you reach "Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer 2008" he clearly does not care about his reputation, he almost is parodying himself.
