New Nightmare
 

I just bought the DVD of Wes Craven's New Nightmare. Because it was on sale :D

I've never seen it or heard anything about it other than when I saw the preview on my NOES1 VHS. Did you guys like it or hate it?

It's ok. i can't really remember it, all i do remember was seeing it when it first came out and i remember liking it.

Its amazingly good.
Wes put a fantastic spin on the character when he had degenerated into a freakin' stand-up comedian.
Awesomeness and sideshow toys have just put out pics and stuff for the Nightmare Freddy 12". Trenchcoat and all.

I dunno about AMAZINGLY good, but I remember when I saw it, I thought it was waaay better than the last few before it, I hold it in about equal regard to Freddys Dead, I liked the exploration of new ideas used in both.
A break from the comedy was good, yeah...he seemed a lot more "NOES 1" than in any of the others.

Yeah It was definatly a breath of fresh air for the series.

its awesome

I just got done watching it and I thought it was amazing. It brought a whole new side to Freddy and scared the bajeesus out of me. I thought I would miss all the Freddy One-liners, but taking the humor out made him that much scarier. Im so glad I bought it.

i did like the dark side of freddy in this movie... however, it made him a much less personal killer... he was more like a legendary force... some complaints i had on the movie were with freddy's actual makeup/effects design.. the glove was a little too different... and his makeup was tooooo... umm... clean... know what i mean?...
also.. from a sound production, you could tell they were rushed with some of the sound design because during the quakes and stuff... they used the same dish/pot breaking sound for almost everything that fell...

othe rthan that, i thought it was way better than freddy's dead

and about it being the closest to the original nightmare

nightmare 2 was pretty dark for freddy.. i'm thinking darker than the original...

however, jesse was a bit too fucking gay... :)

you just went up in the coolness rank of my book orange ;)

also... i think you should save up your money.. and just buy the box set.. give the seperate movies you already have to friends..

sounds like a good movie, i think i have heard of it, johnny depp? sorry i just thought so...oh well :p

umm.. johnny depp is in the original nightmare on elm st...
