nice trailer.but sound of fredy´s voice is not so good

"You know, I think my Freddy is just a bit more serious," Jackie Earle Haley told MTV's Vanessa White Wolf during an on-set interview. As fans well know, later versions of Robert Englund's take on Freddy Krueger skewed heavily towards slapstick horror as opposed to overt creepiness.
From the sound of things, the "Nightmare" remake will take horror back to its roots. Which isn't to say that Freddy the jokester will be absent if the rebooted series continues forward. "He's not much of a comedian," Haley said. "But I'm working on my tap dancing lessons, just in case they do a sequel." A more serious Freddy isn't necessarily cause for alarm. Craven's original is pure horror, and the visual of Krueger -- fedora, striped sweater, bladed glove -- is central to that. As we've all now seen in the trailer, Freddy's appearance is pretty faithful. "It's really important for us, as we're re-envisioning this, that there's a good, strong sense of new and fresh but there's still some recognizability," Haley said of the adaptation's faithfulness. "I think a lot of what was in that first movie is also in this movie, in terms of the structure of it and how it plays out." There's more of course. As we've all seen in the trailer, the origin of the monster gets a closer look. "We delve into Freddy's background a little bit more," Haley explained. "It's a very similar background to what we know about him, but... I think it's going to be a unique kind of homage to Wes's original film." |
I have mixed feelings about this one. My first thought was that it's a pointless remake. But having thought about it, there is a chance of pulling it off correctly.
On a side note, I really wish they'll portray him the way they did in the original films. He looked okay in New Nightmare, but it just made the film "awkward", for a lack of better word. |

The Nightmare on Elm Street 3
Freddy Krueger haunts the subconscious dreams of teenagers and kills them in their sleep........
This will be in theater on March 30, 2010. And absolutely, I will not missed this part. I really like this movie, since the first part and this is my favorite movie of all the horror movies I've watched.... I like the suspense part of this movie...... http://cinemarv.com/a-nightmare-on-elm-street-trailer/ |
One of my favorite series of movies, but I'm not too stoked about this remake.
I seen the trailer and was totally disappointed, he looks different and seems to have lost his humor. |
I think it looks decent...though, my expectations aren't high...Bay just seems...wrong? I don't want a scary action movie ha.
I know I'll see it regardless. Freddy just about raised me between the ages of 7-15. Quote:

“It’s probably a little darker, a little more seriousness,” Haley says of his portrayal. “There’s some of that gleefulness, but it’s probably a little more serious. A little more pissed.” A new trailer will be released on Thursday morning at 12:01am PST. |
I also have mixed feelings about this movie. I mean I am opened to remakes but most of the time I've been disappointed by them. I am crossing my fingers for this one...

looking good to me

Though it didn't appear so far that clearly but it seems Freddy is going to look pretty ugly in the remake with bit too much make up effect. Whereas there was always kind of cuteness in Freddy Englund's burned face. And that's an interesting point that the famous on screen killers used to had either some kinda innocence or cuteness whatever you call on their disfigured/burned face or iconic mask.

When the movie was first announced I was horrified, but thought that it'd be cool to see Robert as Freddy again. Then, I found out he was being replaced and I lost all hope in the movie being worthwhile.
However, I don't think they could have redeemed themselves any more than they did by casting Jackie. He's a fantastic actor and admittedly a little creepy. I started paying attention to the movie again and when I found out they were going to make him look like an actual burn victim I was excited. I am excited because I didn't want them attempting to recapture the charm of Freddy from the original and I have long since come to terms with a remake and a what appears to literally be a new vision of Freddy. Jackie and the crew have come up with someone that looks and comes across as absolutely terrifying. There's something about a burn victim's face that sends shivers down my spine, I feel horrible for them but it doesn't change how I feel. They also seem to have done away with the humor side of Freddy, or if it's still there it's not slapstick comedy anymore, it's dark and dry (which I love). Overall, I am now pretty excited about the movie. Robert Englund will always be the Freddy I love and will think of first when Nightmare is brought up, but it seems as if Jackie will take this is a much needed darker direction and ultimately I think it will work, if we let it work and let our minds let go of the fact that it's not Robert. |
I liked the old Nightmare on Elmstreet but as they progressed past part two I somewhat lost interest. Hopefully the remake will do the original film justice.
|
It's funny, the kids in Freddies victim age group, are too young to remember the original Nightmare on Elm St movie. The older I get. . .
. . .just keep killing them Freddie, please just keep killing them. |
One thing I don't get is that they're making him look like a realistic burn victim with scar tissue etc. Freddy wouldn't have scarred because he died in the fire. People don't heal after they die. And it could be said that in the afterlife he chooses to appear scarred to scare them more but surely a horribly charred walking corpse or at least the gooey mess that the original Freddy was would be scarier.
|
i agree with gothamundead about the choice in the actor. he was awesome as Rorschach. i dont like the fact that he isnt an actual pedophile...it takes away from the character. the makeup is ok at best. im sure it will be worth watching
|
Ferret, you're probably right that original Freddy (makeup wise) will be scarier, but oddly enough when I was younger there wasn an episode of Salute Your Shorts that was Freddy inspired, Zeke the Plumber.
Zeke scared me more than Freddy ever has and the new Freddy reminds me of him. So, to the childhood fears long forgotten, this new Freddy is more frightning. Not to mention that the new Freddy will undoubtedly go in a more serious/dark direction that the original movies never touched on since they just wanted slapstick humor after Craven was done. DeadKlown, I had to be a nitpicker/corrector, but it was Rorschach that he played, but I'm glad you agree about Jackie! |
damn i even googled the name warshack before typing it because it didnt sound right...i just saw his pic pop up and assumed warshack was right...damn google
|
No worries, dude. It happens, and I meant to say "hate" not "had" anyway. Stupid typo on my part.
|
Not sure what to think of this, Im excited for a new serious Nightmare film, but with out the real Freddy (Robert Englund) Im just not sure.
|
he looks like tiny from house of 1000 corpse in the movie poster
freddy doesnt look or sound like freddy, that kills it. its too dark and sinister also. the original was supposed to be slapstick, thats why they made it that way. Hell its from the 80s, everything was a little cheezy, clothes, hair, music..... I mean if I ware freddy I would toy with my victims and crack jokes before I killed them. Its more fun that way. the remake will probably do great because teens now would mostly think the original is too cheezy and the remake is more modern( dark and sinister). can not possibly be as good as the original though. |
