The new Nightmare on Elm Street remake
July 23, 2008
Cinemagoers are set to experience an entirely new Nightmare on Elm Street, with Warner Bros. today hiring a scribe to pen a remake of the horror classic. Wesley Strick, who knows a thing or two about scares having written Arachnophobia, Cape Fear and Wolf in the early 1990s, has been charged with the task of re-imagining the scare-fest for a new generation. According to Variety, Strick's re-boot will retain the original's high school setting, but delve deeper into the psychology of the razor-gloved serial killer Freddy Krueger. Warner hopes to have the film in cinemas in 2009, to coincide with the original's 25th anniversary.

What did you expect?
Zombie's Halloween intro is bound to influence similar-themed remakes. :rolleyes:

Freddy Krueger has a psychology?

But Halloween never dived into his psychology. He was evil from the moment God of Thunder started playing. His family just happened to be a bunch of mean assholes.

It seems the wrong way to go, to me. Krueger is an undead demon ghost supernatural being thing that can get in your dreams. To show a backstory for him will serve to "humanize" him- but do you want a humanized nightmare?

If they do it right I think this will be great, because I've always wanted to see more of Freddy when he's human. But I don't really want him to have a reason for being evil. I just hope they show him when he was a human more.
