So there's a remake of the classic A Nightmare on Elm Street coming out and for some reason the trailer for it really didn't show what Freddy looked like. Now we have an idea of what to expect in the film thanks to a pic of the upcoming Freddy figure. Check out the pic here.

The original was not scary to me. The remakes of Halloween and Jason were not good either, so excuse me for saying that I felt that this movie was not needed. I hope that the movie is good so people get their worth but not for me.

He just looks like a burn victim, though. It doesn't even look like he can sneer, let alone smirk.

I'm tired of horror movies that aren't scary, throw in random female nudity for no apparent reason, pointless sex scenes..and lack storylines that are engaging..the Secret Window and Sixth Sense were great movies...i think writers should start focusing more on story then excessive gore etc...all that's nice...but put in in context with your story...not just a random sex scene or shower scene that serves no purpose to anything but the fact that it's a naked woman..it's not like that's going to make me go "WOW this movies great naked women!!"...

I think that's what they seem to be going for. I can't blame them for trying to cut out Freddy's jokester personality, since that just made him harder and harder to take seriously.

So instead they're making it harder and harder to distinguish him from every other horror movie villain. Good plan.

At least he still attacks people in their dreams instead of just being some nut running around in a dirty sweater :P.

Not really, IMO. The original and New Nightmare are probably my favourite Freddy movies, and they worked well enough without resorting to crude gags and silly one-liners.

no, drugs and a bad boxing career did that

anyway, what about Englund? He is still a working agent

Sajedene!?!?! You see that guy at your agency, where are you? Tell him to get back in the movie ASAP!!! He better at least have a cameo

It sucked. The special effects were ok, but it was just another stupid movie filled with a lot of gore and no content...sort of like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake. I would suggest you pass on it.

No you completely missed the point...if nudity is included make it a relevant part of the story..not just a random scene that doesn't further the plot or anything..

I think he means that the crappy horror movies just through in nudity for no reason, and he's right. It's so out of place, that it's not common for a pointless sex scene to be in a horror movie.

Also I REALLY wish the original Robert Englund was playing Freddy.

Exactly..i don't mind if it's used as a means of furthering the plot...like as if to show an intimate relationship between two characters..

You people crack me up. Pointless sex scenes, creative deaths, and cheesy one-liners are what made those movies appealing. It's 80's slasher style at its finest.

I don't like it. I thought Freddy was always grinning in that psycho with a sense of humor way.

Almost 2 pages and not one comment on Freddy being played by Rorschach?
