Will it buck the recent trend of classic horror remakes being absolute garbage?

Will it fu...

 
I'm a fan of the Nightmare of Elm St films so I'm excited about seeing this, of course it won't be as awesome as the original but as long as it's good to watch then happy days.
 
I'm a huge NOES fan and will look forward this. No Robert England will be strange though.

I have heard rumours that freddy could be wrongly accused of child molestation/killing and only comes back to get his revenge on the kids that parents murdered him.

If I find out this is true I will boycott the film.
 
Did not realise Michael Bay had had anything to do with this. What was always going to be shite. Is now going to be shite with big explosions

Part 1 is an all time classic horror. 2 and 3 are OK, after that they are all ridiculous.

Has anyone ever seen Freddy vs Jason? I have no words to describe how utterly terrible that movie is
 
Utter waste of money. Script writers must be pulling their hair out.
Surely somebody can take a chance on an original concept.
Some people are taking this recycling shit too far, they are even doing porn remakes now..
 
It looked ok, some good scenes look to have been revisited and the pool scene looked reminiscent of freddy 2. His voice sounded strange though and could put me off.

In all fairness I only enjoyed parts 1, 3 and the new nightmare anyway.
 
he didn't even look like freddy at the end of that trailer. I'll watch it but not holding out for much that its good though


They should make a Freddy vs Jason vs Chucky vs Leatherface
Agreed.

However, I would add to it, and make it:

Freddy vs Jason vs Chucky vs Pre Blob Zombie Michael Myers vs Leatherface vs the chick with a dick from Sleepaway Camp vs The Leprechaun.

Ron Burgandy and the Channel 4 news team vs Freddy and Jason.

How's that so different from the original story where he was an acquitted child molester/murderer who got off on a technicality, killed by the town's parents, who returns to kill every kid in town by way of revenge?
 
I've no idea who is playing Krueger in this remake. I still think Robert Knepper would have made a fantastic Freddy.

Looks like the guy that played Rorsach in Watchmen. Jackie Earle Haley?

Anyway, the face is rubbish.

Robert Englund is Freddy Krueger.
 
Agreed.

However, I would add to it, and make it:

Freddy vs Jason vs Chucky vs Pre Blob Zombie Michael Myers vs Leatherface vs the chick with a dick from Sleepaway Camp vs The Leprechaun.

ah that would be a funny drunk film. Throw in a naked Debbie Gibson and I will be there!!

Because in the original he was guilty of his crimes and held no remorse at all.

If this is the plot for the remake it almost makes him vigilante-ish out to get those who wrongly blamed him for misdeeds. Which would be just wrong and would take away from what the character really is.

Very true, and that would make the context of the killings totally different and underwhelming.

Well, judging from the beginning of that trailer, I would say there may be something in those rumours.

Seriously? feck that shit. It was a lot better when he was just killing to kill.

Seconded.
 
Never heard of him. Well the face looks a bit fecked up and the voice sounds weird. I'll give it a go anyway since I'm a fan of the original movie.

I thought he looked a bit like a scarecrow, infact come to think of it, i think the scarecrow face / hood thing in Batman Begins is probably freakier than that! ;)
 
It would be pretty stupid if they made Freddy innocent and wrongly accused.
