With the remake of Beverly Hills 90210 on TV and a new Melrose Place on the horizon, remakes are the new black. It seems that television writers and producers aren't the only ones that have run out of fresh ideas though because there's been a great amount of buzz surrounding a possible remake of the horror favorite, Nightmare on Elm Street. I'll admit the thought of Freddy Kruger's sinewy, acid-face kept me up more nights than I'd like to remember as a kid, but I'm not sure how he would compare to the other horror figures nowadays.
Let's take a look:
The pose is less than intimidating. Freddy looks like he's just downed a Big Gulp and there isn't a bathroom in sight.
2. The one hand claw is very reminiscent of Michael Jackson's one glove, which is troubling in an entirely different sense.
3. The scariest thing about the Where's Waldo? sweater is that it has a horrifying amount of loose threads.
If the remake has peaked your interest (or you want to see a really cute, fresh-faced Johnny Depp), you can refresh your memory by checking out the trailer for the original:
OMG, what a classic! i hated those creepy little girls singing and that girl on the ceiling scene was so freaky! this is random but it just reminded me of Poltergeist and the whole braces scene! I was happy when the whole Freddy series was over and I really don't wish for him to come back again. Unless, we want to torture a whole new generation of kids! :)
