Take a Video Tour With Heather Langenkamp Through ‘Nightmare on Elm Street’ Film Locations!

Published

Written by Patti Pauley

Screw your pass! Thanks to the fine people at JoBlo, we don’t need one to take a guided tour of some of the iconic filming locations for Wes Craven’s masterpiece, A Nightmare on Elm Street. 

 

Any fan of the franchise with the most minimal of knowledge, is aware of the infamous 1428 Elm Street house where one of horror’s greatest heroines resided. Well, this eleven- minute long video hosted by Freddy’s arch-nemesis Heather Lankenkamp, not only features the legendary dream house, but other vital filming spots principal to the 1984 horror classic. Locations including Tina’s house, Springwood High, the jail, and many more key places in the faux town of Springwood, Ohio.

Speaking of the fictional town in the mid-west, most of A Nightmare on Elm Street was shot in various locations around Southern California; much like Carpenter’s Halloween where the made-up mid-western town of Haddonfield was shot mostly in Pasadena. Personally speaking as a horror film setting enthusiast, I’m 100% envious of the remarkable slasher landmarks of you SoCal folks.

Which brings us to this glorious video for those, like me, who don’t have a treasure trove of horror landmark destinations in driving distance. Directed by Ryan Cultrera for JoBlo’s “Where It Was Made” series, Miss Langenkamp in true documentary fashion gives us the ins and outs of these hot spots from the film, their backstory, and some little trivia that some of you may have not heard from behind the scenes. Such as, Springwood High, which is actually James Marshall High School, was the education home of Leonardo DiCaprio? So yeah, Mega star Leo is tied back to Springwood Slasher High. Pretty cool, eh?

Eli Roth (Cabin Fever) and Crypt TV are knocking it out of the park with their new VR show, The Faceless Lady. For those unaware, this is the first fully scripted VR horror show on the market.

Even for masters of horror like Eli Roth and Crypt TV, this is a monumental undertaking. However, if I trust anyone to change the way that we experience horror, it would be these two legends.

The Faceless Lady

Ripped from the pages of Irish folklore, The Faceless Lady tells the story of a tragic spirit cursed to wander the halls of her castle for all of eternity. However, when three young couples are invited to the castle for a series of games, their fates may soon change.

So far, the story has provided horror fans with a gripping game of life or death that doesn’t look as if it will slow down in episode five. Luckily, we have an exclusive clip that may be able to satiate your appetites until the new premiere.

Airing on 4/25 at 5pmPT/8pmET, episode five follows our final three contestants in this wicked game. As the stakes are raised ever higher, will Ella be able to fully awaken her connection with Lady Margaret?

Published

on

A new trailer for the movie formerly known as Pussy Island just dropped and it has us intrigued. Now with the more restrained title, Blink Twice, this  Zoë Kravitz-directed black comedy is set to land in theaters on August 23.

The film is packed with stars including Channing Tatum, Naomi Ackie, Alia Shawkat, Simon Rex, Adria Arjona, Haley Joel Osment, Christian Slater, Kyle MacLachlan, and Geena Davis.

The trailer feels like a Benoit Blanc mystery; people are invited to a secluded location and disappear one by one, leaving one guest to figure out what is going on.

In the film, a billionaire named Slater King (Channing Tatum) invites a waitress named Frida (Naomi Ackie) to his private island, “It’s paradise. Wild nights blend into sun-soaked days and everyone’s having a great time. No one wants this trip to end, but as strange things start to happen, Frida begins to question her reality. There is something wrong with this place. She’ll have to uncover the truth if she wants to make it out of this party alive.”
