Well, Jason has one, and Michael has one. So well thought we better have something for the dream master. Weather you like the sequels or not you have to admit that the original is one of the best, and well done Horror movies to date. So i decided to make one for Freddy Krueger, talk about how good the original is, or how crap you think the sequels are, even the remake that is bound to hit us. I myself dont mind the sequels, but the original out shines them all. What are your thoughts?

As always the original can't be touched-but these movies will be remade over the years and there's nothing we can do.I'm actually looking forward to the remake and if you want to curse me for that,let me tell you a story.one day in 1984 my friends and I helped a neighbor move all his belongings (he had a wife and 3 kids) into several trucks.he paid us 50 bucks each.when you're 15 that's gold(it was 1984).we used it that night to go see the original A Nightmare on Elm Street.I can still see us sitting in that theater watching it and hear the screams from the audience-especially the "macho guys" that theater no longer exsists unfortunately.I saw a lot of other classic movies in that theater including Halloween'78 for the 2nd time and The Shining...

I'm looking forward to the remake myself, but most things I've heard have been rather negative....
