I despised Friday the 13th and Halloween remakes. Wasn't aware the new NOES was out yet, I'm pretty sure we're gonna have to wait a while here. Either way I'm too young to legally see it in a cinema so doesn't really matter. I'll probably rent it when it comes out on DVD. I'm expecting good things from Jackie.

@Topic: The reason why I enjoy watching franchise reboots is because, I'm only nineteen years old. I didn't grow up in the slasher film era of the 1980s. I was born in 1991. The year Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare was released in theaters. And since all these reboot slasher films of classic icons are being released, I feel that I hadn't really missed out afterall. So I say: Bravo? I don't know..I actually did enjoy watching the remakes of Friday the 13th, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Halloween, and A Nightmare on Elm Street, I mean they were pretty alright movies, and they really weren't as bad as everyone makes them out to be. :S |
My 18 year old daughter watched the entire Nightmare series on DVD, and thinks the remake is a travesty.
Robert Englund is king. Other bad remakes: Last House On The Left Salem's Lot The Fog |
I gotta say I did enjoy this remake. The only thing I thought was a problem was the age of the actors vs. the age of the characters they were supposed to be playing. They were supposed to be in high school? They all looked almost as old as their parents.
I liked the way the backstory was filled in, I liked all the kills, I liked the very end. And I liked the way Freddy looked, it was well done. Nothing will replace the original NOES, but this was a good reboot, it happens in comics all the time and as long as its well done, I don't have a problem with it. I can understand liking the amytville, TCM and other remakes that make them more 'modern' but just my personal tastes I didn't like those particular remakes at all, and most remakes I do not like at all whatsoever. |
I'm interested in seeing how this one is executed. Myers, Jason and Leatherface were just dudes in masks than pretty much anyone with a big frame could play. I wasn't to see exactly how they'll do an character like Freddy that had actual dialogue and a personality.

Rod hit the nail on the head, completely uninspired. It was a waste of my time and money. I knew I would hate it and only went to see how much. The last 5 seconds were the best part of the whole waste of film that it was.
