The very cool website The Editing Room allowed me to taint their track record by providing them with an abridged script of my own; A Nightmare on Elm Street.  It was good fun and I hope you enjoy it; I wrote one for X-Files: I Want To Believe a few years ago which you can read here too.

I’ve always thought I could write a fantastic Nightmare on Elm Street movie, I’m a big fan of the franchise and this might be the closest I get to that dream, and this isn’t even close come to think of it…an abridged script of a remake of the original, I need to rethink this.

WHAT IS IT? A movie shortened to a few pages and written in screenplay format. The purpose is to save you time so you don’t have to see the movie but can still talk about it to your friends, co-workers, and mistresses.  Rod Hilton created The-Editing-Room.com site back in 1998.  Since then his scripts have gone on to be featured in Forbes, Entertainment Weekly, and Total Film

trailer for a nightmare on elm street

Sunday, September 27th, 2009

New Line Cinema has revealed the teaser trailer for A Nightmare on Elm Street which I have to say, looks pretty impressive.  The money shot at the end left me wondering if that is Freddy’s face throughout the film or just after a nasty…fall?  Directed by Samuel Bayer, the April 30th release stars Jackie Earle Haley as the new Freddy Krueger who some may remember from LITTLE CHILDREN…also playing a pedophile.  Also, if you check out his IMDB you might also notice the guy was MIA from 1993 to 2006.  What’s up with that?  Jump for the trailer! (If it lags for a few seconds, it’s the fault of something called MySpace)

One, two, Freddy's coming for you...

One, two, Freddy's coming for you...

Jackie Earle Haley (Rorschach from Watchmen) as Freddy might just be the best casting call since Shia Labeouf as a sweaty teen.  This is the first official look at Freddy, who is being resurrected next April for a new Nightmare on Elm Street movie, the first without Robert Englund and Wes Craven, he says they left him out of production too.  Pic thanks to MySpace (hey I remember that site!).

Update #1 – Check out this cool banner [shocktillyoudrop]
Update #2 – High res banner after the jump below. [IGN]
Update #3 - Another pic of Freddy (soon I promise)
