Forget Zombieland! Here is the A Nightmare on Elm Street trailer in beautiful HD.
Please check it out and let us know your thoughts on Samuel Bayer's re-imagining of Wes Craven's original Nightmare!
Freddy Krueger returns in A Nightmare on Elm Street, a contemporary re-imagining of the horror classic. A group of surburban teenagers share one common bond: they are all being stalked by Freddy Krueger, a horribly disfigured killer who hunts them in their dreams. As long as they stay awake, they can protect one another…but when they sleep, there is no escape.
at first i was pissed off at the new look and voice but then i realized wait it is not a sequel it is a remake so ofcourse they should change up the movie
and the more i whatch it the more i love the new look and the voice is alright now
im sooo disheartened by that trailer,and most of the time the trailers are the best bits,where did the crappy make-up come from and for the voice dont get me started!!!!!!!!!wont be paying to see it .WES CRAVEN HANG YOUR HEAD IN SHAME!"if it aint broke dont f##king fix it! a lost fan who will stick to the originals thanks but no thanks!!!!! WASTER!
Firsto fo all Danny, you didn't even spell his name right. It is spelled Freddy Krueger. Also, I must say that the more I see this trailer, I want to, for some un-godly reason, see this more. It probably has to do with the fact that the original was my favorite horror movie of all time, which doesn't actually make sense, because that should actually mean that I wouldn't want to see it. Strange. I agree that he does have a personality that only Robert Englund can pull off, but it's okay because it's a remake, unlike the future "Child's Play" remake where Brad Douriff will reprise his role as Chucky, and Dan Mancini will write and direct. I find it funny how with some remakes, the original director actually makes it (Child's Play), and with some, the original director refuses to even see the thing (NOES).
I think If you don't wanna lose millions at the box office you should really keep the make-up original because I don't find the make-up on this trailer very appealing as I did watching the original movies. I mean If the actors and the movie is gonna suck, don't make the image of Freddy suck as well.
Well, I think most of you are right. I'm quite worried about the make up. I hope it's a trailer trick for people to think he's different, or something. Because the traditional Fredd Krugger's make up was great, it is in the mind of many of us: If he changes it would be like another character wearing fredd krugger's swaeater and glove. It's not the same as Halloween and Friday the thirteenth, where the guys are wearing a mask. Fredd Krugger has an identity.
It could have been better. I thought it was amazing until he opened his non-Robert ENglund mouth. His Freddy voice is pathetic. It sounds like Christian Bale's Batman: Terrible.
Looks great. Love that it's more serious and less campy. JEH face looks cool! He always looks cool :)
YALL HAVE NO IDEA HOW EXCITED I AM. I have been waiting for this day to hear some news about another movie. This has made my day. I CAN'T WAIT!! I'M A HUGE HUGE FAN OF FREDDY. The only thing that saddens me is that Robert Englund won't be playing freddy, but I guess i'll have to get used to the voice... just odd to me.
from what i saw in the trailer i like what i saw it looks like they are staying true to the original all in all it looks really good as far as the make up and voice i can get used to it i mean this is a remake so hey it is what it is but whats kind of funny about the make up to me is that this freddy kind of looks similar to that burned, deformed guy that was in a wheel chair from the movie hannibal some of you know what im talking about.
After watching the trailer I feel both comfort and worry. The story line looks good and I love what I saw of the nightmare scenes. I also loved the beginning they seem to be staying true to the story line. Some things I am concerned about. I don't want them to play the sympathy card and make it seem like Freddy never molested anyone. Even though it was not 100% clear the viewers all knew that Freddy was a BAD man. The second thing I'm worried about is that I am hoping they are not just copying off the original. The bathtub scene and the bedroom drag scene is a bit alarming. If they put it in the movie I at least wanna see something new and unexpected that would make it awesome but idk bout all that. The final thing that is a bit unsettling is the voice and makeup. I did not get to see the comicon trailer however, his voice sounded different in that trailer versus this one *if some one could let me know if it was the same I'd appreciate it" The same thing with the makeup. I understand and I do appreciate that they are trying to make him more realistic like a burn victim but I don't think its scary? Maybe thats because I see many burn victims so I'm immune to it but I wanted to see something that made you gasp...This looks really CGI'd.
All in all though I am very excited and glad to see Freddy back on screen and i love jackie hes spot on.
The "superman" reveal, at first I didn't know what you guys were talking about. But now I know. I HOPE Rod is right, and it will be on fire and it will consume him!! :D
but again, other then some minor things, the trailer is interesting and brings forth more excitement--if we didn't think we could get any more excited!
In regards to those who complain about rebooting NOES. GET OVER IT. I mean now when I begin to read a comment that starts with "Im so pissed..." I hardly can finish it. I was also upset, but when Robert came out and spoke in favor of Jakie taking on his iconic role, that settled it. So I am happy, can move on, and begin the journey of not only reviving Freddy Krueger BUT perhaps putting horror back in the right hands... the glove of Freddy.
When Freddy rips his coat off in the fire, it looks like when Superman rips off his shirt to reveal the Superman "S"

Maybe they will add more flames but it is a lame Platinum Dunes thing they do in every movie. This big reveal of the villains' trademarks.
Yeah! I hope they don't go down that road! I promise you all this (and I am sure others will follow and agree), if PD trashes such a iconic figure as Freddy Krueger, I will never watch a PD created/produced/made movie EVER. I love FK too much to forgive such a horrible deed.
i love it, im a huge nightmare fan and i cant wait. hearing they were remaking this movie months ago was like a dream coming true, love all nightmare movies and i tihnk jackie will be great, def was caught off gaurd by the wax lookin face and voice, but i will get used to it, the superman sweater move was lame but i like the intro to wat was bout to happpen, glove looked dark and old, perfect, this gets me more ready for this, cant wait for more news and more trailers when the time comes.
Regarding the Superman reveal: given how many months we have until the movie is released, I am fairly certain that shot is unfinished, and that int he finished shot his jacket will be on fire-- it's the only way that shot makes sense.
I love it. I love the look. I love the make-up. I love his voice.
Can't wait.
I CANT BEILEVE THERE REMAKING THIS MOVIE. I AM SO PISSED BC I HAVE BEEN A FAN OF NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET SINCE I WAS 5 AND THERE GOING TO FUCK UP THIS MOVIE JUST LIKE THEY FUCKED UP FRIDAY THE 13TH . THE NEW FREDDY IS AWFUL ALREADY I DONT LIKE HIM IN THAT ROLE AND I KNOW HE'S GOING TO SUCK BC HIS LOOK AND HIS VOICE SOUNDS SO FREAKING GAY. THERE IS ONLY ONE FREDDY THATS ROBERT ENGULND . THEY NEED TO LEAVE THIS MOVIE ALONE. DONT FUCK WITH SOMETHING THATS ALREADY AWESOME. IF THEY TURN THIS MOVIE INTO A PORNO LIKE THEY DID FRIDAY THE 13TH THEN THIS MOVIE IS GOING TO SUCK. THESE PEOPLE DONT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT MAKING MOVIES STOP DOING REMAKES AND GO THINK UP UR OWN MOVIES LEAVE THE CLASSICS ALONE.
They even said its not gonna be like the Friday the 13th remake! Its going to be serious and dark! Also the movie isnt even finished yet, so chances are Freddy is going to LOOK and SOUND different. And you don't know anything about making movies either, so shut up!
Just wanna say.. Don't forget about "Zombieland" like they say at the top of the page!! Just saw the premiere of it, and it was great!!!! This looks good too. :)
I love the trailer. Everybody complaining he sounds like an old man...no he sounds like a person who had his lips burned. Its an accurate vocal characterzation of a burn victim.
Well the trailer has for certain made me even more excited then I already was. The voice.... it will take getting used to. The dark atmosphere is perfect, and as a previous user said, if Kreuger stays within the shadows, this will make one hell of a movie!! :D I mean it will be nice to see him once in a while, but to a min.
The sweater, the glove seems old, dark, and dated---just right! The face, well it is a bit dark to tell details, but seems interesting nonetheless.
I suppose we have to wait til april for the WHOLE picture!!
Ill be watching this over and over again!
It was good....until the end. The voice is absolutely awful. Sounds like an old man with loose dentures. The make-up looks awful too. The attire is right, but the voice and face is someone else. He looks like Freddy in the dark and shadows. Let's hope he stays in there for most of the movie.
I thought he sounded like an old man too! Of course the Superman reveal of the sweater was pretty lame also.
This movie is gonna fucking great I am sooo pumped for it. the face is the shit cause its a more realistic burn victim look to it. Im seeing ti opening day and if so midnight howing if they do it.
Look's fantastic! I'll be there opening day! PS. this look's like it has a really cool "Dark" look to it.
