Heather Langenkamp's Quotes
- When I'm around actresses who've put their careers at the top of their priorities, we don't have much in common.
- I'm not rich or famous, and it doesn't bother me.
- I do like acting, but it is just something that I do on the side, being rich and famous is not a priority for me. I have my husband, my kids, my parents, my brothers and sisters, my home and enough money. I don't need to be this rich and famous millionaire actress, I am quite happy with what I have and I can't think of anything that might be lacking from my life
- Doing Nightmare didn't really help my career much because people have a stuffy mentality about horror films. I kind of feel what a porno actress might feel, trying to tell everyone how great her movie was.
- [on Nancy Kerrigan and Tonya & Nancy: The Inside Story (1994)] I bet she detested that movie. I'm sure she hated it because everyone was just taking advantage of this tragedy in her own life. She never gained anything from all that. But I do think I'll have an opportunity to meet her someday, and I thought, "God, I wish they'd re-air that show because I'd like to see it and I don't have a tape of it." It was very original. It was an interview format where these people who are tangentially involved are interviewed, and you see scenes of us acting. It was kind of like Reds, that movie that Warren Beatty directed where you see the real people talk about it and then you see actors acting it out. I'd love to see it again. I thought it was really fun movie, and it was fun to make. It was super fun to make.
