A Nightmare On Elm Street - Remake Confirmed

[Jo269976]

Now with a few months reflection my view on the remake has slightly improved, I will always love the classic no matter what and if done correctly with the right director (Craven again?) and script this could work.

Don't get me wrong, Englund is Krueger and he always will be, it still won't feel like a NOES movie without him but we can still try to make a damn good horror movie.

My suggestions is that the only character from the original who is kept is Freddy, lets have a whole new bunch of kids with a new storyline, not a shot-by-shot remake like The Omen or at least some new fresh ideas into the plot.

DON'T make this a quick cash-in remake, spend some time perfecting it, every single frame of film should be perfected in order to please us die-hard Fred Heads.

As for the pick of Krueger, my pick is Zack Ward (Suicide corpse in Freddy vs. Jason), he had to impersonate Krueger at one point in the film and done the movements perfectly, this would give fans of the original some classic Freddy while still keeping an entirely new interpritation of the character.

As much as I'm against horror remakes, this is gonna go down wheither we like it or not and the original will still always be out there for us fans, but until I see the cast list and the director, I'm not really entirely convinced.
