Freddy Returns to Haunt a New Generation with Nightmare on Elm St. Remake

Certain movies have an impact on your life in many ways. Despite the fact that "its just a movie", I know of several people who have viewed horror movies and it impacted their day-to-day lives.

The original Nightmare on Elm Street, in my opinion, is one of the top 10 scariest movies of all time. I believe that what makes a movie truly scary is when it manipulates a common part of real life and gives it a scary twist. The theme centered around Nightmare on Elm Street was that the kids in the movie would be haunted in their sleep and after a while they didn't know if they were dreaming or awake.

The remake hits theaters today and although Robert England is not onboard to play Freddy in this remake, Jackie Earle Haley stepped up to the plate and gave Freddy a new personality.

I'm normally very harsh in critiquing remakes. I think the best remake to date is the Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

Will Nightmare on Elm Street stand the test of time? Hit the movie theaters and find out.
