New Sneak Peek to 'A Nightmare on Elm Street' Leaked

4 hours ago | Aceshowbiz | See recent Aceshowbiz news »

An exclusive look at "A Nightmare on Elm Street", which is included in Warner Home Video's "The Final Destination", has been available online. Though it only features few never-before-seen scenes, the new sneak peek shares the process of making Freddy Kruger's sharp claws and burnt face.

A remake of Wes Craven's 1984 film with the same title, "A Nightmare on Elm Street" will see horribly disfigured killer Freddy Krueger returning to hunt suburban teenagers, including Nancy Thompson and her boyfriend Quentin, through their dreams. Trying to stay away from death, they struggle not to fall asleep.

Jackie Earle Haley is cast to portray Freddy Krueger, while Rooney Mara plays Nancy Thompson. Additionally, Thomas Dekker and Kellan Lutz are among the cast ensemble. Samuel Bayer directs this horror film which is set to invade theaters across the U.S. on April 30.

New footage from A Nightmare On Elm Street 2010

5 hours ago | Fangoria | See recent Fangoria news »

I'm going to go on record here as saying that I absolutely despised the Platinum Dunes Texas Chainsaw Massacre films, and (although I've had the DVD sitting here for ages) have yet to watch their take on Friday The 13th. While their previous remake fare didn't exactly pique my interest, I have to say that I'm becoming increasingly excited about their reboot of Wes Craven's A Nightmare On Elm Street franchise.

With each new tidbit to escape the New Line/Warner Bros./Platinum Dunes camp, my interest grows - and thus far, I can't find a single thing to gripe about. That said, those that purchased the just-release Blu-ray edition of The Final Destination got a special treat in the form of an extended preview and behind-the-scenes featurette from Samuel Bayer's A Nightmare On Elm Street, and thanks to YouTube user "jmayer2009" the clip is online. With a little luck, »

New Elm Street footage revealed

6 hours ago | TotalFilm | See recent TotalFilm news »

  To be honest, we haven’t been all that excited about the post-millennium reworking of Wes Craven’s slasherific A Nightmare on Elm Street. The full trailer, released some weeks back, did little to stir our inner hellraiser. And, apart from that, buzz has been minimal. But now a behind the scenes look at the film has popped up on YouTube, and seems a little more promising. Lifted from the Us DVD release of The Final Destination, it’s basically an extended trailer with added juicy visuals and some soundbites from...

Promo for Mick Garris' Post Mortem

19 hours ago | DreadCentral.com | See recent Dread Central news »

A new promotional video for Mick Garris' new TV show for FEARnet has found its way online, and we've got the goods for you right here. Dig in, baby!

"Post Mortem With Mick Garris" will feature the creator behind the anthology "Masters of Horror" as he sits down with some of the genre's top writers, producers, and stars including Tobe Hooper, Wes Craven, and more.

Each episode of "Post Mortem" will run about a half-hour in length and be sort of a "Charlie Rose of Horror" type show with five-minute webisodes being utilized as an adjunct to that.

The show and the webisodes will debut in February on the network, which is distributed via on demand, online, and mobile platforms. Look for more soon!

Dread Central's Best & Worst of 2009

3 January 2010 6:58 PM, PST | DreadCentral.com | See recent Dread Central news »

2009. It was pretty much as crappy a year for horror movies as it was for the economy. There were, however, some really high points to help balance out all the drivel that was put out there in theatres as well as on home video, and they are to be celebrated, even though technically a couple of them are not even from this year.

Pull up your chair, sit back, and strap yourself in for a look back at the dos, the don'ts, and of course the "Doh!"s of this past year.

Dig on our Best of and Worst of lists for 2009 by following the links below!

Andrew Kasch's Picks

District 9 - Neill Blomkamp’s sci-fi/action/horror hybrid delivered the kind of hardcore testosterone roller coaster ride we hadn’t seen since the glory days of John McTiernan. With story and special FX superior to that of »
