Nightmare remake...Failure!
So, my sister Tash and I watched this last night because we were interested in seeing Jackie Earle's take on Freddy. Sorry Jackie, you gave it a go but, umm no. No one can do it like Robert Englund can. This movie was so emo. There was no of the teenage fun and innocence like in the first. Even the "baddest" kid in this was too good. And the Tina part was made bigger, she wasn't a stupid bimbo, and almost seemed like the main character. There is a review at the bottom of the imdb page which sums it up completely in my eyes. Although he didn't mention the fact that the parents were also very "good" in this movie. Remember Nancy's alcoholic mom? Heck, her dad isn't even in here. How about the cool climb up the gooey stairs? Nope, gone. I did kindof like the back story sequences except that it made Freddy just a pitiful perv. He should have been slightly creepy even in life. Oh well Failure Samuel Bayer!!
