Behind the Screen: Nightmare on Elm Steet: New Freddy

For over two decades, MTV's The Challenge has been the proving ground where reality TV's fiercest competitors come to cement their legacies. What started as a Real World/Road Rules spinoff has evolved into one of the most physically and mentally demanding competition series on television.

The franchise's expansion — with spinoffs in the USA, UK, Argentina, and Australia — speaks to a global appetite for the brand of cutthroat competition and alliance-driven gameplay that Vevmo's community has been tracking since 2007.

Do you guys think it's going to be a complete remake of the original...

Not really. There are some scenes that are related but are entirely different. Honestly this movie shouldn't have happened. The cast minus maybe Kellan sucks.

I guess New Line Cinema wanted to remake it since they remade Friday the 13th. Kellan is awesome. Hope there's some good twists and turns. Is the actor playing Freddy a good actor?

Coming soon: From New Line Cinemas: Another Failed Remake like Friday the 13th!!!!!!!
I loved the Friday the 13th remake! It was awesome....totally 80s reminiscent too (like Return to Sleepaway Camp)

I am so upset about this remake. I love Freddy Krueger. My email is Fkrueger50@aol.com... I grew up watching Freddy (yes I was a kid, but I still grew up watching him). It's not a complete remake... It will have similar aspects: Girl dreams of a killer and realizes it's real, mother tells her who he was and what happened to him... blah blah blah... They were casting for extras in Chicago for a pool party scene! (No pool party in the original nighmare on Elm Street, there was a pool party scene in Nightmare 2, which was awesome!) In Fangoria they showed a few pics where Haley (alive, not burnt) was walking in an elementary school playground, sporting the famous Freddy fedora. I saw him in Little Children with Kate Winslet, Jennifer Conelly and Patrick Wilson and he gave me the creeps, but he is no Robert Englund. Robert Englund is Freddy Krueger. Plain and simple!

I loved Haley in Watchmen!
Dartagnan#41
Me too OPD. He stole that movie. I think he has it in him to make Freddy work.
CrazyRealityGuy#42
I will be thinking about Robert Englund everytime I see the new Freddy all made up... So it will definitely be difficult for me to watch. Haley did give me the major creeps in Little Children and did a great job in Watchmen.
