Nightmare On Elm Street Remake

[lil'ms'krueger]

Is making a Nightmare on Elm Street remake a good idea?
Or, is it just going to ruin a cult classic horror icon??

[Dimnos]

Depends.

[Tadao]

I'll take door #3

[Fathom Zero]

Jackie Earle Haley is pretty good.

[Durrsomething]

It's gonna suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu uuuuuuuck

You do NOT try to replace Robert Englund as Freddy

Man Hollywood sucks total ass

What next, Child's Play remake with John Travolta as Chucky?

[darkvare]

if he acts like robert did on the first nightmare movie i guess is ok the new fiery glove looks awesome

[robo_rob]

With the way the current remakes have been going, prolly wont turn out so well. Then again, maybe they'll get it right this time.

[SLjimbolian]

It's simple; if you liked the Friday the 13th remake from earlier this year, you'll like this. If you hated it, then you'll hate this.

I never realized that Nightmare on Elm Street was released the exact day/year I was born. That excites me.

New fiery glove? I haven't seen it yet. Where are the pics of it? Have they shown pics of Freddy yet?

[Fathom Zero]

Yes, and he looks pretty good!

Looks ok so far... glad they didn't screw with the look of Freddy too much. I still wanna see a less shadowy pic of him so we know just what he looks like.

[Dimnos]

What if they keep him all shadowy in the movie?

I'll post a pic of the new Elm Street's police cars (exciting, I know) in the next day or two. My local sign vendor did the vehicle wraps for the movie's fake police cruisers.

[Durrsomething]

Is it me, or isn't it ironic that this comes out a year after Michael Jackson's death, with all the similarities with him and Freddy.


Should've called the film "Michael Jackson: The True Story". Then I would see it.

[Zomboid]

Yeah, can someone ban him?

Lemme break it down for ya:

Good horror remakes:
Dawn of the Dead

Shitty horror remakes:
The Fog
Last House on the Left
Halloween
Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Friday the 13th

...and I'm sure there's more that I can't remember off the top of my head.

[Fathom Zero]

I didn't even like the Dawn of the Dead remake after a while. It got borin'.

[Durrsomething]

You forgot The Thing and The Fly

[Zomboid]

It's pretty obvious I'm talking about recent remakes, you idiot.

[Durrsomething]

Well did you say "Shitty Modern Horror Remakes"?

No

Be more specific next time jerk

[Zomboid]

Yes, I can see how you'd have trouble figuring that out for yourself based on the movies listed. You really are as stupid as they say.

[Dimnos]

At least ones this millennium. :lol

I know the remakes aren't as good as the originals, but I saw Halloween, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Friday The 13th with my cousin, and it was worth it so see her huddle up in her seat every time.

Edit: And I plan to see this remake, too.

agreed. the teaser posters look okay, but it's not the aesthetics of freddy that i think will be affected, more the sick sense of humor and total disdain for teenagers. well, disdain for anyone, really.

[Skulhedface]

While I guess Rorschach would end up making a decent Freddy, I still have my doubts about tampering with the classics.

It's like the Fred Durst who thought Behind Blue Eyes needed a Limp Bizkitification.

[bendoofus]

Nooooooo!!!!
