DAY 56: October 26th, 2008.
Nightmare On Elm Street
Nightmare On Elm Street holds a unique title, along with one other film, as being the only films to really scare me. Now, how can this film scare me? Well, I first watched at a cabin in the middle of the woods at 3 in the morning. Also, my chair was right in front of a big freaking window. I don't know about you guys, but sometimes I get the feeling like there is something behind me and watching this film at that time in that location with the big open space behind me like that....yeah I was scared. Not to mention that this film is sick and twistedily good. Yes, I just made up Twistedily.
So here we have one of the horror icons in his first outing, his best and most memorable one at that. Only to be rivaled by the third installment, Dream Warriors. Here is where we are introduced to the child killer and the beginning of our nightmare begins. I always remember seeing this on my uncles VHS stand and wanting to see it. As it stands today, it's still one of my favourite horror films.
How many memorable scenes does this film have? Tina's death, Freddy creeping through wall, telephone sex, bathtub hand appearance, Johnny Depp pulled through bed. So many to name, not enough time.
Freddy became somewhat of a joke as the series went on, but here he is truly terrifying. I recommend this film to anyone looking for a classic horror slasher in the likes of Halloween and Friday the 13th.
By the way, Freddy can so kick Jason's ass.
