Just had to post a little something real quick. Myself and London D just got back in from seeing A Nightmare On Elm St. I will have to say that I really enjoyed the movie. I mean I really liked it. Being someone that has seen all the previous NOES (Nightmare On Elm Street) movies, I definitely think it was time and past due for a remake. I mean after seeing remakes of Halloween and Friday 13th, I knew it would not be long. I have read mixed reviews about the movie and still had to see it for myself. After all, everyone doesn’t have the same taste.
I do recommend that if you have not seen the movie, that you go and check it you. You don’t have to take my word for it and anyone else. Please go and see the movie for yourself. I think this was so good seriously. I will always be a big fan of Robert Englund playing the original Freddy, but there is nothing wrong with bringing someone in new . The voice, face, movement everything was different and something new to expect from the new Freddy.
What I liked about the movie? Well I’ll start with Freddy. I really do like the new Freddy and how they did his make up this time around. He actually looks more of a horror character. I also like the fact now that when he walks he rubs his blades together, kinda to create a distraction I would assume and to create that fear factor. When he talks he there are some comical things said, but its nothing to take away form the movie and make it into a comedy. The movie brought a few of the other NOES all in one. I remember in the original NOES part 2, the guy named Jesse in the movie, who was being possessed by Freddy. I believe he was in this one as well. I really could not be clear on all of the character names besides Nancy of course. I liked the storyline of the movie. It was a combination of a couple of the NOES movies all in one.
I really think that this is not going to be the end. I think they will make at least one or two more, without getting carried away with the sequels. They didn’t do it with Halloween and neither did they do it with Texas Chainsaw Massacre. When you start getting into all the damn sequels, I feel that it takes away from the movie and the character.
So make sure you check it out and feel free to let me know what you thought of the movie.
