Robert Englund Has An Amazing Idea For A New Nightmare On Elm Street

Published

Written by Patti Pauley

More than thirty years has passed since Wes Craven gave birth to the horror icon that induced insomnia into an entire generation of horror fans, Freddy Krueger. And Robert Englund who made Freddy the iconic slasher he is, owns that character like no other. While it’s true sometimes an actor that portrays such an iconic role, can be annoyed by the fact in every interview this character comes up in one question form or another, it seems that The Nightmare On Elm Street star never shys away or seem agitated at any conversation about his Freddy Krueger role. And for that, we tip our fedoras to you Mr. Englund. Thank you for always being amazing to us, the fans.

A Nightmare On Elm Street has gone through so many sequels, and an epic fail of a reboot since its debut back in 1984, that it brings up a very important question: Where does Freddy go from here, if anywhere at all? Well Robert Englund recently sat down for an interview with Florida Today and gave a very interesting answer to that very question.

If I was in control of my own Nightmare on Elm Street movie, I have an idea I would have liked to see. I thought it would be great if the children of previous victims, or just kids who grew up hearing stories about Freddy Krueger, were each haunted by their own version of Freddy Krueger. Kids who grew up hearing stories about this Freddy Krueger guy and the awful things he did envisioned him in their own way, and that is the version that begins to haunt them. Some people may picture him as stout, another might envision him as tall & thin, another with a different hat, or a different sweater. He could have different gloves, or even a glove with small razor blades as referred to in the first movie. It would be neat to see very different interpretations of Freddy Krueger based on the child’s vision of who or what Freddy was to them. After all, each person’s subconscious would picture him in a totally different way.

 

Can we start a GoFundMe to get this movie made now please? The premise Englund has for the franchise to live once again, is like a breath of fresh air. Do you think this idea would work? What direction would you like to see the series go?

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.”
