Sid Haig's Quotes

  • Well, for one reason or another I felt it was necessary to keep making money in the business. I've done over 350 episodics, in either feature or starring roles, and 34 films. I felt at the time I had to do that, because I had a family. I had the choice of falling back on selling cars or whatever -- nothing against car salesmen -- or purposefully taking on the lion. Walking right into the den and saying "Here I am, and you're going to have to deal with me." And that's what I did. Was I a successful father? Maybe not. Was I a successful husband? Probably not. Was I a successful actor? Probably not.
  • When I went to school - Pasadena Playhouse - we were taught that the obligation of the actor is twofold: to entertain and to educate. We don't educate. So I've taken that onto myself. Now am I a good educator? I don't know. If someone latches onto a concept of mine, then I've taught well; otherwise, I'll have to rethink my stand on things. But in a country where individualism is supreme and synonymous with being an American, it's all vanished - it's all gone now. You go to college, and you know what you learn in college? How to work for somebody else. I teach an acting class for teenagers in the summer - I have for the past fourteen years. I don't encourage them to go to college: you want to be an actor? Be an actor. If you have to starve to do it, starve to do it. But if you're not passionate about what you want to do, you won't be good at it.
  • We shot the film [Spider Baby or, the Maddest Story Ever Told (1967)] in eleven or twelve days, something crazy like that. And for the first two days, I was almost hiding from him. Not that I was afraid of him but I just didn't know what you say to someone like Lon Chaney Jr.. And at one point, Jack said "We're ready, where's Chaney? Sid, go get him, okay?" So I went over and I knocked on his trailer door and I said "Mr. Chaney, they're ready for you." And he said "No, stop that. I'm not Mr. Chaney, okay? I'm Lon, you're Sid, we're working together. Let's just keep it at that, okay?" And so it kind of put me at ease and made talking to him and hanging around him a little easier to do.
  • [on why he retired on account of getting typecast] I just didn't want to play stupid heavies anymore. They just kept giving me the same parts but just putting different clothes on me. It was stupid and I resented it, and I wouldn't have anything to do with it.

Interesting Facts about Sid Haig

  1. Attended the Pasadena Playhouse (1959-61).
  2. Certified hypnotherapist.
  3. Drummer for the late 1950s band The T-Birds, who released the single "Full House".
  4. He and Pam Grier appeared in five blaxploitation films in the 1970s. Being a fan of those movies, when Tarantino was casting Jackie Brown, he orchestrated a reunion of Sid and Pam, who hadn't seen each other in about 20 years at the time. Everyone on set was told to not let Pam find out that Sid was playing the judge. So when Grier walked onto the courtroom set of Jackie Brown (1997), and saw Sid as the judge, she burst out laughing and ran over to him for a hug.
  5. As of 2006, Haig donated 10% of his profits from conventions and appearances to charity. He also continued to enjoy a flourishing revival of his career.
  6. Not exactly fond of the dialogue he was given in Galaxy of Terror (1981), Haig opted to play the character mute for most of the movie. When producer Roger Corman asked him why he was trying to play the role without dialogue, Haig's response was "Have you read it?".
  7. Formed his own corporation, The Haig Group, with his wife Susan L. Oberg, of which he was Founder and President (2006).
  8. Managed a community theater in Simi Valley, California, called Stage and Video Education Theatre (S.A.V.E.), which operated from 1989 until 2004.
  9. Received both the Universal Eyegore Award for lifetime achievement and the prestigious Premi Maria Honorifica at the Sitges International Film Festival (2010).
  10. He was Tarantino's top choice for the role of Marcellus Wallace in Quentin Tarantino's crime drama Pulp Fiction (1994). When Haig turned down this, the role went to Ving Rhames.
  11. After shooting 3 from Hell (2019), Sid Haig received a letter of thanks from an executive at Lions Gate Films. They thanked him for signing on to do the film, because if he had not signed to the project, Lions Gate was going to cancel the entire production. Without Sid Haig's participation, Rob Zombie never would have gotten to make the film.
