Nightmare on Elmstreet – rebooted

Just saw the trailer over on io9.

What can I say, Nightmare on Elmstreet was one of my favourite movies growing up. We saw the first movie when I was 11, back in 87, while travelling on a bus. In the end 20+ kids toppled out of the bus puking… I was not one of them.Will this be another attempt of hollywood to rape my childhood or will this be something completely… new? A good remake?

  1. From what I can see they flesh out the backstory – good.
  2. I can see some remade iconic moments – bad.
  3. They have taken elements from both the first and second films – good.

This means that if it would be a success then a sequel would not be a direct sequel of the second movie – even better.
