Product Information

Platinum Dunes revives the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise with this reworking of slasher film legend Freddy Krueger, a deceased child killer who torments the dreams of the teenagers of Springwood, OH. Jackie Earle Haley picks up the killer's mantle from series veteran Robert Englund with the reboot from music-video director Samuel Bayer. Recapturing the grisly wit of the original, Wesley Strick and Eric Heisserer, take the classic slasher to a new level. Freddy appears in the dreams of a group of high school students living in the peaceful suburbs of Springwood. As they struggle to understand why the same evil figure stalks them in their dreams, they must not fall asleep... their lives depend on it.

ReviewsTime - [D]irected by vide-auteur Samuel Bayer and written by Wesley Strick and Eric Heisserer, [NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET] is what I'd call a fine copy.The new Nightmare is a straight, shiny, honorable remake., Entertainment Weekly - It's not every day that one of our rogues' gallery of iconic psycho killers gets to be played by a creepy and fascinating actor û [Jackie Earle] Haley knows how to make his own toxic sullenness show through the makeup, and he gives Freddy a touch of gravitas., The Guardian - [A} film in which the teens are screaming and the blood is flowing; a steel-jawed little man-trap tucked just beneath the duvet. Anything less would be a dereliction of duty.
