31 Days of Horror: A Nightmare on Elm Street




A Nightmare on Elm Street.  The one where it makes Freddy look like a pedophile instead of the cool “in your face,” in your dreams, down to earth kind of killer.  I never really knew the story behind Freddy Krueger.  So I was pleased when I heard this one could lay all of the question to rest.  The only problem with this is now I find myself rooting for the snot nosed brats that he is terrorizing.  I’m only joking, the only person who I take more pleasure in seeing terrorize his enemies is Vin Diesel as Dom from the Fast and the Furious saga. That part where he makes that jerk in the diner cut his own throat with a steak knife is epic. Even more epic then that time Vin Diesel wheelied that car in the quarter mile against Paul Walker at the end of The Fast and The Furious. Not to mention the part where Freddy kills that skinny wiener in the jail cell, and his cellmate gets really scared, that part sends chills up my spine.  Kind of like when Vin Diesel made an appearance at the end of The Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift. This movie was so good I would almost put it on the level that Fury put the Ninja Turtles on.  I give this movie an even 8 out of 10 stars.
