nightmare on elm st.
It sort of makes you wonder how the town's police chief got to be married to that woman. What could the back story be?

Did the Elm series indicate he was a pedophile? I don't remember that. I know there was some made-for-tv movie that gave his origin story in more detail: a nun got locked in an insane asylum for the criminally insane and got raped by all the inmates and the baby was Freddy. It's silly they stressed "all the inmates" as if multiple sperm can fertilize an egg. Anyway, as far as I can remember, Freddy doesn't kill any prepubescent person in the films, so I think that concept is out the window. Last edited by Sculpt; 07-17-2018 at 06:02 PM. |

In the original movies from the 1980's it never stated that he was a pedophile but he was in fact a child killer and that was the reason why the parents of elm street burned him alive. In fact I'm pretty positive that the creepy little children who appear in the nightmares are meant to be some of his younger victims. And I guess the reason that the movies never actually showed him killing young children was because like any slasher movie it's only amusing when he's killing annoying teenage stereotypes (played by 20 year old actors of course)

I thought in the remake he just cut the kids rather than abused them. I didn't really get that.

But I dunno I mean I'm not really a big fan of these movies and I haven't watched them in years so I might be remembering some of the facts wrong.

it doesn't even apply
I don't think it applies to The Dead Zone, but have you ever noticed that usually in American movies, the bad guy has much better manners than the good guy? Especially if the bad guy is European. I guess American men think it's not manly to be polite.
Let's shed a tear for the late Herbert Lom *sniff*, who died in 2017. I thought his performance as the doctor in Dead Zone was one of the best things in the movie. Lately, for some reason, my cable has been repeatedly showing the Herbert Lom version of Phantom of the Opera. If you want to see a delightful Lom performance, watch "The Ladykillers." (the original one.) I hope Herbert Lom's last days were lightened by residuals from all those Pink Panther movies, the way Alec Guinness's was from the money from Star Wars. |

But sometimes you get American movies where the villain is your typical impolite Yank. Especially if he's military or gangster.

I guess that way of thinking is still expressed in our movies and yet the majority of our movies and TV shows are focused on the lives and adventures of rich white families living in nice big houses. Ironic isn't it?
