The new Nightmare on Elm Street movie

As I am sure many of you have heard, Nightmare on Elm Street is being remade and released in theaters in 2010. When I first heard this news I was incredibly excited. Freddy Krueger is one of my all time favorite horror villains. He kills you in your sleep, how is that not terrifying? I love sleep.

The trailer was released recently and I have to say, before it even started my hopes were destroyed in an instant. Before any of the good stuff came on screen, the words that showed up next crushed me to my very soul.



FROM PRODUCER
MICHAEL BAY



WHY OH WHY DID THIS HAVE TO HAPPEN?! Why would they put one of the greatest horror villains in the hands of Michael Bay, 'The Misery Bringer'. They might as well title this movie, "Nightmare on Elm Street: The Death of a Franchise".

We all know what the man did to Transformers. A line from South Park comes to mind....

"Those aren't idea's Mr Bay, those are special effects. [Other Guy]: Oh he doesn't know the difference"

There is a moment in the trailer that is somewhat iconic to the series, Freddy scratches his nails along some pipes. You might be asking yourself, "well how could he mess something as simple as that up?" Don't kid yourself, this is michael bay.

[and yes, while writing this blog my opinion on the man dropped even lower, so much so that I have decided to stop capitalizing his name]

But when Freddy scratches the knife nails along the pipe, it sounded like a fucking 10 ton jet engine was crash landing and scraping along the runway. What the hell was that about?!? I just know that michael bay is going to have fucking lasers and monster truck noises playing every time someone is just walking on some gravel.

But don't let my opinion hold you back. Sound off in the comments section and let us know what you think about the new movie coming out. We'd love to hear from ya.

  1. He's only producing it. As long as he doesn't have any real creative say and keeps away from the camera, I'll give it a chance.

    I just don't think I'm gonna like Rorschach as Freddy. Robert Englund was just the man.
