Bradley lives in London. He is a longtime close friend of horror/fantasy novelist Clive Barker, the two having met when they attended secondary school, and has worked with Barker in various capacities (from a theatre group to the Hellraiser films) since the early 1970s. He is the author of an autobiography, as well as a volume Sacred Masks: Behind the Mask of the Horror Actor which explores the history of masks in society, and their applications in horror films. Contrary to his roles in many religiously themed films, such as The Prophecy: Uprising and the Hellraiser franchise, Bradley is an atheist.

Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    In the twentieth century one of the most personal relationships to have developed is that of the person and the state.... It’s become a fact of life that governments have become very intimate with people, most always to their detriment.
    —E.L. (Edgar Lawrence)

    The cinema is not an art which films life: the cinema is something between art and life. Unlike painting and literature, the cinema both gives to life and takes from it, and I try to render this concept in my films. Literature and painting both exist as art from the very start; the cinema doesn’t.
    Jean-Luc Godard (b. 1930)
