episode 92: Wes Craven's New Nightmare
1, 2, Freddy’s coming for you! The reboot of A Nightmare on Elm Street hits theaters April. You can start getting ready now with the hosts of Now Playing as we revisit and review all the films in the Nightmare on Elm Street series. A decade after A Nightmare On Elm Street, Freddy was living the dream – he had the souls, the stardom, the house and kids, and most importantly the reputation as one of cinema’s most celebrated killers. But what Kruegar really wants to do is direct! So now The Evil Formerly Known As Freddy (TEFKAF) steps out of the movies to meet his makers. Is Craven’s post-modern reinvention an inspired new direction for the series, or a trail of breadcrumbs leading nowhere? Listen and find out!
