      You know what would've been great is if Robert Englund played both himself and Freddy, so there'd be a scene where he jumps out at Englund, cackling and goes, "You know, I think I've Seen Your Face Before!"

      @Shanethefilmmaker 4 роки тому +5

      @River Acheron What I liked about it was the ambiguity. Granted we all know what "Freddy" is in New Nightmare, but they never specifically said how he came to the physical world. For all we know, "Freddy" could have possessed Robert. True it's shown that Robert and his wife went out of town, but considering how the climax started to mesh the real world with the movie world, very similar to how Wes originally intended the first Nightmare to be; it makes sense that that scene couldn't be taken at face value. For all we know, New Nightmare isn't Heather's scary reality, but Nancy's bad dream.

    Brad, you should review the 1989 version of Phantom of the Opera starring Robert Englund. I mean the friggin poster read "Robert Englund was Freddy. Now he's the... Phantom of the Opera. An all-new​ nightmare."

    • @cliffhanger5753

    This is sort of the H20 of the Nightmare franchise...it brings the original protagonist back for an anniversary film full of references to the original. But while the references in H20 are just there to pay homage, the references in New Nightmare serve a purpose in the story, by showing how reality and fiction are being intertwined and Heather is actually becoming her on-screen hero.
    This is the one Elm Street film that I would call genius.

    One thing I enjoy about this movie is the ending. It's got this snake biting its own tail kinda vibe to it. Wes tells Heather earlier that storytellers can capture the Freddy entity but not destroy it, and if they stop making stories about it then it will get free. So, what do you do? You create an endless loop in this story that when the story ends, it begins again. Heather reads Dylan the script, which starts the movie all over again and it will end right there again where it will start over again in perpetuity.

    Definitely the best of the sequels, probably second next to "A Nightmare on Elm Street 3:Dream Warriors". In fact the only entries I own are the original, the third, and this one. Man it won't be long until you get to "Freddy vs. Jason", or the 2010 remake with Jackie Earl Haley. I bet the 2010 version would be prime "Snob" material. Also funny how you mentioned Wes Craven as both John Carpenter and Sean S. Cunningham, but I surprised you didn't say something about that note at end being signed by George A. Romero. Great as always.

  • @Amber_xo_133
    @Amber_xo_133 4 роки тому +2

    The film has no opening titles to blur the illusion of whether it's a film, a documentary, or something else altogether.
    This is the first movie in the "A Nightmare on Elm Street" franchise that doesn't have any opening credits.
    The events in this film revolve around Heather Langenkamp having a stalker. In real life, she did have a stalker, and Wes Craven got her permission to weave it into the story.
    At one hour and fifty-two minutes, this is the longest film in the "A Nightmare on Elm Street" franchise.
    the only nightmare on elm street movie where none of it takes place in springwood.
    The death of Heather's husband largely came about due to concerns that Freddy simply wasn't killing enough people in the screenplay.
    Tracy Middendorf's death scene was shot in a rotating room.
    Body Count: Four
    (At around one hour and forty minutes) In the final scene where Dylan stabs Freddy's tongue outside the oven, you can hear the famous Psycho (1960) shower scene music.
    Tuesday Knight: (At around thirty-six minutes) can be briefly seen in Chase's funeral scene.
    In A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984), the movie that Nancy watches on television to try to stay awake is The Evil Dead (1981). In this film, the movie that plays on television is A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984).
    In reality, Heather Langenkamp's real husband David LeRoy Anderson is a special effects man. As he is in the film.
    In the ending credits, Freddy Krueger is credited as himself, even though Robert Englund reprises the role.
    Before making this movie, Wes Craven watched all of the"A Nightmare on Elm Street" films. By the time he was finished, he claimed that he could not follow the storyline at all. He further regards the sequels to be weak compared to his original masterpiece.
    The basic premise of the film, Freddy invading the real world and haunting the actors and crew responsible for the "A Nightmare on Elm Street" films, was originally intended to be used for A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (1987), but the idea was rejected by the studio at the time.
    David LeRoy Anderson, who is Heather Langenkamp's real-life husband, declined to play himself.
    Miko Hughes was a Freddy fan way before filming. He would watch them put the make-up on Robert Englund every day.

    Minor correction: Craven wasn’t too afraid to ask Depp to reprise his role, there was no way the budget would allow for it so they didn’t even reach out to him.

    • @willdallas53

      No. Craven himself has said that he was afraid to ask him because he thought Depp had gotten to be to big of a star to say yes.

    Ahhhh. THIS was my first "Freddy" movie! I caught it on TV back in 98 or 99 or whatever and saw bits and pieces of it.
    I knew who "Freddy Kreuger" was and I heard he was sometimes silly and comical and other times your literal worst nightmare. And then I caught some of this movie and man, I wasn't sure if I was ready for some shit like this.
    ONE thing I remember was from the funeral scene when Heather was crawling into her husband's (elongated) casket to save her son from Freddy and the corpse of her husband grabs her and tells her to 'come with me'. fuck, man. I was too young for that shit...
    … I was about 10, but still...

    It's pretty silly that people involved in making horror movies are even a little surprised at the idea of bringing Freddy back from the dead. "But you killed him off! You can't just... un-kill off the killer in a long-running slasher franchise!" Oh well. This is still my favorite in the whole series.

    Does anyone else think that Reel Freddy straight up possessed Robert Englund? That was what I always thought. In which case I'm pretty sure they might have accidentally murdered him. Which is, of course, why they needed someone else to play Freddy in the remake.

      If you like a darker Freddy better than the remake, check this fan made trailer. The guy that made it, along with two others, spent thousands of his own money to shoot these trailers in hopes of getting a studio's interest in investing in making the movie which he would direct. m.ua-cam.com/video/sIbv19R2rfY/v-deo.html

    The thing that sets this apart is that it’s one of the rare horror films that’s fully self-aware
    And this would set the stage for Craven’s next successful ‘Scream’ series fully taking advantage of the meta self aware humorous approach deconstructing the genre
    After 6 films that started back in 1984 the ‘Nightmare on Elm Street’ movies started to change
    Craven at one point became very upset that they took his original creation and turned it into a joke
    But with this film and New Line Cinema he finally gets to bring Freddy Krueger back to his roots making him truly terrifying again
    It’s also a reunion with original scream queen herself Heather Langenkamp playing herself as well as producers Sarah Risher, Bob Shaye, the late John Saxon, and co-star Robert Englund
    ‘New Nightmare’ manages to stand out amongst the other sequels being it doesn’t connect to any of them and they fully acknowledge that Heather has stayed out of it despite its popularity and box office success
    The movie is appropriately scary taking its time to reveal this new version of Freddy, Englund does wonders playing dual roles as himself, the makeup effects are astounding, and the writers come up with a massive mythology regarding this slasher villain
    Tracy Middendorf as the babysitter Julie is so darn likeable that its a shame what happens to her later
    The score is also effectively scary and there’s a theme of Hansel & Gretel sprinkled throughout creating a sense of dread as well as atmosphere next to more psychological thrills
    The ending is also the icing on the cake wrapping up this long battle of good vs evil
    It’s a shame despite the positive reception this ended up crashing at the box office being forgotten
    But this paved the way for Craven to make a career comeback in horror with ‘Scream’ following two years later and this movie has definitely gotten more attention with time thanks to its meta layered concepts and many callbacks to the franchise, it was more than just the money it was about finding a creative way to justify its place in the series
    A clever way to blur the line between fantasy and reality in the Hollywood landscape playing with fan reactions plus moral outrage
    Heather Langenkamp and Robert Englund give it their all falling back into their respective roles and making the rivalry come alive like they did back in 1984
    Thankfully it also ended the franchise on a much better note after ‘Freddy’s Dead’ was met with dismal reception while also setting the first template for legacy follow ups
    Craven succeeds making his famous creation scary once more

    Honestly, I feel like what might have been better than this was Freddy *not* having come to life, and it's more of a psychological deal for the female lead and other characters. having visions, but things end up just not happening (her husband gets home fine instead of being in an accident, for example) or just coincidences. Leave enough doubt that it could go either way, but Freddy's never actually real. Could be interesting.

    On a slightly unrelated note, I wouldn’t mind a Halloween movie with this premise. Maybe even tie it into Halloween III, as Silver Shamrock makes a Micheal Myers mask and said Micheal Myers possesses the wearer to kill people and all that can stop him is the actors in the movie, like get in Jamie Lee Curtis to play herself, maybe even Malcom McDowall since we no longer have the great Donald Pleasance. It could be done.
