Add a Commentmuch better than the last nightmare on elm street. an excellent film
It a good movie to see. I love this movie so much.
Fair - A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010) 95 min. Jackie Earl Haley dons the mask of Freddy Kruger to torment and reek vengeance on a group of teens. Sounds familiar? It is. This re-imagining of the character and storyline is as necessary as a $3 bill. The reason for Freddy's death all those years ago is explicitly revealed in this film; which transcends this character from sort of an anti-hero to just pure evil. Haley is not very effective as Freddy; Robert Englund has the voice and stature that makes Freddy "Freddy". Also, the facial make-up of Freddy looks almost like a mask purchased at Canadian Tire for Halloween. Overall, the film will most likely satisfy those that have a yearn for such a film but I found it same old, same old. And the very last scene made absolutely no sense at all.
Some movies are not meant to be remade. There is only one man who is fit to play Freddy Krueger and that's Robert Englund. Don't waste your time with this one, just watch the original.
