Yep Wes Cravens horror original is coming back to theaters September 20-21 2006. Keep watching for more details

I take it this is to coincide with the release of the Infinifilm dvd?

Good film. But I was never a huge fan of it. I'll pass.

[MinionZombie]

Infinifilm DVD? Also, good flick, hope they haven't messed with it ... like replacing all the guns with walkie-frickin'-talkies! But I was always in the Friday 13th camp rather than Freddy. Friday's sequels were infinately better than those for Nightmare (part 6 ... a killer MAP, I mean come on!).

[Bubdotd]

I might watch it if i have nothing better to do.

[radiokill]

i'll watch it if there's nothing else playing that my girlfr*ahem*......I mean I want to see I want to see. The only good sequel in the series was dream warriors and it rocked.

Friday's sequels were infinately better than those for Nightmare (part 6 ... a killer MAP, I mean come on!). Well first of all, what if the walkie-talkies were part of Wes Craven's orignial vision? I do agree with you about the sequels. Although the first Nightmare was a great movie, and the next two were good (particularly Dream Warriors), the rest of the series was just a sad attempt at filmmaking from a bunch of hacks who couldn't make it on anywhere else (like Renny Harlin). The Friday the 13th sequels were bad (except for 2,4, and 6), they were mostly entertaining (except for 5).

I love the Nightmare On Elm St series (own the boxset). I hate those of you that don't love it. This will be cool to see in theatres.

I think the origianl NOES was an awesome film. Even though it is obvious that the special effects budget was low, Wes Craven did some amazing things with the limited budget. The mood was definately very creepy, almost scary. Of course, there were some incredibly dumb lines in it, but I love the dumb lines. My fav is when the mom is explaining what happened, it goes something like this... "Freddy Kruger was a rotten filthy child murderer who killed a dozen kids in the neighborhood. But someone forgot to cross a T or dot an I when they arrested him. The judge got fat and the lawyers got famous, but he got off on a technacality just like that." Yeah, child murderers who killed a dozen kids would definately get off just like that.She continues.. "So a bunch of us parents...." What, was she born a parent? She has been in a constant state of parenthood forever? So her daughter had no knowledge of a child murderer who killed 12 kids in her hometown within the last few years? Very believable.

yawn... that film sucked then and it does now ive allways preffered friday the 13th i mean krueger used to be a good character but hes been in rap videos with the phat boys for christs sake hes just a parody of himself nowadays.

Freddy, in the first Nightmare, was badass - although they made the same mistake with him as they did with Jason and Michael in Friday/Halloween - the minute the "scary guy" in the movie becomes the main character (meaning, the camera starts following them around instead of the people in the movie), the movie becomes pure crap, period. The best part about the first Nightmare, first Halloween and first Friday 13th is you never knew where the hell the killer was 'till he (or she in the case of first Friday) took your face off.

What, was she born a parent? She has been in a constant state of parenthood forever? So her daughter had no knowledge of a child murderer who killed 12 kids in her hometown within the last few years? Very believable. I thought there was a deleted scene where Nancy's mom tells her that she had an older sister but Freddy killed her with other kids from the neighborhood before Nancy was born. It's moments like that that should stay in movies to avoid confusion.

[AcesandEights]

Meh. What else is there to say, except where is the yawny emoticon?

People get off on crap all the time when cops f**k up their case. *cough* O.J. *cough* Her mom was referring to the fact that they are parents now, that is usually how people talk, but also a lot of them were probably parents back then too, and Freddy was killing their kids. That is why they killed him. Maybe Nancy did have an older sibling as noted. Her daughter, Nancy, may not have heard about Freddy because like mentioned in the sequels, the town may have tried to forget about him. It isn't something you usually want to bring up to your kids afterall. Dawg
