Nightmare on Elm Street Teaser Trailer!

F**king wicked!

I think they got the feel of the old Nightmare on Elm Street; we'll have to see on April 30, 2010 if they hit the nail on the head.

I wasn't expecting such a radical change in Freddy's appearance. He seems to have been given a more realistic burn victim look, with smoother features, no lips, a nearly wiped away nose, and less pits in his face.

This look could be good or bad, it might take away some of the expressiveness of the old Englund style face or make him harder to read and thus more eerie, in his sardonic delivery. Either way Haley looks like he's going to give us another great performance.

I also see my man Clancy Brown getting in on the outraged father bit there.

Great stuff @ HULK!!! ; )

I'm H@RD!!!

damm this is the movie that got me scared when i was 5 i couldn't sleep cuz of this movie

This could be awesome. I love the franchise, I own all the movies and I used to watch the TV show. One thing that really sucks about it is that I have to wait till next year to see it! But like everyone else I'm a little skeptical about the voice and the look. I need to hear more of his voice to get sold on that and I just really liked the old look even though it wasn't totally realistic. But what is realistic about a burned guy hunting you in your dreams anyways...

Freddy face looks like that bad guy from harry potter that killed harry parents

I bet a lot of old school Freddy fans will reject this take on things, but not me! I think it looks cool.

To me it kind of looks like they took out all the silly camp, which is novel in and of itself.
But here's something else: I can see from the little segment about Krueger's origin that maybe this time around he was falsely accused? Maybe he didn't actually do it? That's ... different if that's the case

@ror you are pointless. I'm just joking.

One of the big things I like about these remakes is the deeper back story. These guys have been killin' for year so the only thing worth seeing is what made them start killin'. Also I like the darker feel. I thought Bay and Rob have done a great job with their re-makes. Like Darth said they are pulling out some of the silliness from them although that's pretty much what Freddy has been all about. His funny personality. Of the three he actually still has a brain and can communicate and see the traps. I sense there will still be a little bit of that in this new one.

1 2 freddys coming for you 3 4 lock the door

@ kev

i'm with you 100% man!!!!!! this looks AWESOME!!! i loved the original nightmare movie, but the ones after that were so stupid and cheesy, they could hardly be called "horror" movies. it LOOKS like this one did away with the cheesiness, which i'm all for!!

@ logan

i'm confused, he looked like freddy to me, lol, just different, more real looking makeup for the burns. also, you saw a 2 mintue trailer, yet you think there's nothing new about it?? you can tell that from 2 minutes?? and doing away with the cheesiness is new. in fact, thats all i DIDN'T like about the old ones. if they weren't so ridiculously whacky and comical, they might've actually been scary movies.

Meh...Paranormal Activity is probably going to be scarier!

Besides it's disappointing that he doesn't have the voice?...

The look of the movie is fine, Haley looks and sounds good as Freddy.

But I'm awfully worried about that "is he innocent" possibility.
Part of what makes him a monster is that he was a killer/rapist of children before he's burned by the parents. It's also why he's so cruel and sadistic.
To make him a innocent, and wrongly accused, out for revenge changes the character completely.

It wouldn't surprise me if they did that, as hollywood is ruining all the characters from my childhood. Just part of the trend....

Can't wait for this, I think Jackie Earle Haley is the perfect choice to succeed Robert Englund.

Damn I think that guy being short is more creepy than the original Kruger. F#@k yeah I'm gonna see it!

this has a good chance of being a good reboot. that's wat this is. hulk was the old hulk in it's reboot, and no one complained about that. i loved it, tho. anyways, jason and myers both sucked and this has a huge chance. haley was good as rorshach, and he'll definitely be good in this one.

this is a music video directors first film, so give this guy a chance...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ehh it looks like it will be an okay movie.

i told you guys, Ror hates everything! this looks perfect, the beginning made it awesome

Change the record liltard, you sound like a complete yogurt.

Gweedo, by Rob i assume you mean that [frick]ing hack Zombie? Who completely missed the entire point of the character of Michael Myers by giving him a back story. Remakes have their place sometimes, but horror remakes are mostly pointless because we have seen everything they can possibly do with an evil monster murdering people in the original..which is about an evil monster murdering people! The only difference is, the originals tend to have some originality and style and the remakes for go that for gore and cheap jump scares. Im a huge horror movie fan, but look at the remakes we have had so far. Chainsaw. Balls. Best part of that movie was Jessica Biels ass. Friday, I'm not even going to comment on that shit stain. Halloween, as i said above, Zombie has no clue what he is doing. Now this. Whats next? Remakes for The Exorcist? The Shining? But now with more gore and tits..maybe we get to see just how much Reagen enjoys that crucifix eh? Arse.
