Lin Shaye’s 5 most popular quotes

  • I just kind of do my thing with sort of tunnel vision for the story and my role and how it fits together.
  • As an actor, whatever I get the opportunity to do, if it has a good story then I’m in. I thought ‘Dead End’ had a great story; ‘Nightmare on Elm Street,’ of course, was probably the first real horror film I was in.
  • I think the best advice I ever got about acting was from my dad, which was, ‘If they don’t buy the fish on the first toss, throw it back in the wagon and go to the second house.’ Which is like an old Jewish fishmongers’ story about how you become a successful fish monger.
  • I’m not a blood and guts person. I remember seeing ‘House of Wax’ as a teenager in 3D. This was years ago, the original ‘House of Wax’, and that was scary enough for me that I thought I’d never see another one.
  • I may be the only actress in Hollywood who won’t need a face lift, because when I take off my makeup, I look so great compared to my characters!
