Whatever you do, don't fall asleep!

It's hard to believe that there are people that haven't seen this movie. There is a man who follows you in your dreams. He kills you because that is the only place he can truly strike fear. Leaving a teenager alive to tell all their friends just makes business go up in Freddy's book; and gives him alot more minds to invade and lives to take. Killed after being burned by the townspeople after being let off for murders of several children, Freddy Kruger now bears a burnt body with the classic red and green shirt and old hat. This idea was first thought up by Director Wes Craven after being scared as a child by a bum with that same resemblance. A great concept that worked and stuck in the minds of it;s viewers, letting them know they are not safe.. even in their homes. That one thing is true,...Read more

"I probably could have saved her if I'd have moved sooner. But I thought it was just another nightmare, like the one I had the night before.

The story of this film is based around a group of teenagers who all begin to have nightmares about the same person (if you can call him that). They work out that this guy, named Fred Krueger, is out to kill them in their sleep. So we get to watch them in a battle to survive, loosing their friends and trying to stay awake for as long as possible.. because whatever they do, they can't fall asleep. This is a classic horror movie that has produced one of the most iconic horror villains.. Fred Krueger. You will never forget this freaky, grotesque, disturbing, spine-chilling character after ...Read more

I sat next to Robert Englund at the bar yesterday and let me tell you, those eyes could still give me nightmares. What has become a horror cult classic, A Nightmare on Elm Street sits well in any tep ten horror list for a reason, it preys on what every viewer fears the most, nightmares, where your biggest fears can come without warning. Freddy Kruger will always remain one of the most recognizeable horror icons in the business.
