WORST: Movie Doctors
If you want to feel horrible about your upcoming visit to the doctors, look no further than the movies. I’ve put together this compilation of some of the worst doctors in movie history. I’ll be going to the hospital tomorrow for surgery, so in retrospect, this was a bad idea to make this post. Maybe it’s the fact that these awful movie doctors know about anatomy and can take advantage of that knowledge when it comes to inflicting pain on a victim.
At any rate, enjoy! If there are any I missed, be sure to let me know in the comments. Note: Possible spoilers ahead! Graphic Content!
Reel: Freddy Krueger In Mortal Kombat
Freddy Krueger is the new DLC character for the game Mortal Kombat, here he shows off some bloody fatalities.The dream master in a video game that doesn’t suck, this was always a dream of mine. I wonder if they can manage to make a game just for him? [IGN] Watch it below:
Reel: How They Filmed Tina’s Death in A Nightmare on Elm Street
One of my favorite death scenes of all time (wow that sounds morbid) is that of Tina (played by Amanda Wyss) in the original A Nightmare on Elm Street from Wes Craven. I was amazed when I first saw this as a kid, there was nothing like it. What’s even more incredible is how they pulled it off. Much like I showed you How They Filmed the Inception Corridor Scene, it’s all real here. Watch it below along with the original death scene:
Art and Information For ‘Scream’ Documentary ‘Still Screaming’
One of my favourite movies of 2010 was Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy, a four-hour documentary on the Freddy franchise, it was so well made and detailed it left all questions and wonders answered. Enter, the same treatment for Scream, another Wes Craven franchise full of greatness.
An official Facebook page was launched recently for the Scream doc Still Screaming: The Ultimate Scary Movie Retrospective, which will hit stores in April to coincide with the release of Scream 4 (April 15th).
“This documentary will include rare archival footage, never-before-seen photos, new on-set stories, and will reveal the entire success of Scream from its inception right up to the new movie,” producer Anthony Masi told Bloody Disgusting back in November.

The CoF Council Picks: Top 3 Movie Posters
Hello Citizens! We here in the City of Films love movie posters. We don’t post a lot of news about posters because frankly nowadays they are boring and half-assed. For any movie aficionado you know how great a movie poster can be; it’s art and that’s why we hang them in our homes. You size it up, have it flattened, frame it and place her in just the right spot on the wall. Move aside family portrait, The Goonies are going up!
The chosen posters below are not necessary from our homes or movies we saw or liked, but 3 of our favourite posters. If you have a poster wall of your own you would like to show us, head over to our Facebook page and post it – we enjoy that. BONUS: Check out our Top 3 DVD’s (more…)
Freddy’s Revenge Happening In 3D
The new Nightmare on Elm Street went on to defy early reviews by making over $32 million this past weekend at the box office. So it’s no surprise to hear Warner Bros wants to have another go, but this time in a whole other dimension. There’s been a suggestion that the new film be in 3D – that will be the second Elm Street to use 3D – the last ten minutes or so of 1991′s Freddy’s Dead : The Final Nightmare was also in 3D, it even came with glasses! Jackie Earle Haley (Freddy) is committed to three Elm Street films in all. They couldn’t even wait until the number 3 was in the title, lazy.
Elm Street Could Have Been 3D, Keep Fighting People!

New Nightmare on Elm Street Trailer, Still With Creepy Girls
Click the pizza face for a new poster.
Why you screaming? I haven’t even cut you yet. We have a new movie trailer for Samuel Bayer’s remake of A Nightmare on Elm Street. This trailer much like the first one kicks ass. The movie looks so glossy and pretty, and it works. We hear a lot more from Jackie Earle Haley as Freddy Krueger (sounds more sinister now, I guess they heard the internet after the first trailer) although we still don’t get a good look at his face. Freddy will be less funny with less sound bites, for this I am glad. It’s one of the best stories of horror around in my opinion, do it justice please. In theaters April 30, 2010
CoF Presents: Movies To See In 2010
So here we are with a new year and a new line up of movies to enjoy. Did you hear that 2009’s box office beat the sales of DVD and Blu-ray? Really, for true life it did.
