Another Nightmare On Elm Street Reboot

The only thing scarier than Freddy Krueger, is another Nightmare on Elm Street remake. Another remake? Please wake me from this nightmare! As if the 140 plus remakes in the works wasn’t bad enough, New Line is doing another revamp of one of our most beloved horror franchises. David Leslie Johnson, the writer of 2009’s ‘Orphan’, is set to pen the script for the presently unnamed movie. No directer has been named as of yet. Reportedly the new movie will bypass the 2010 remake, completely. Too bad another reboot couldn’t be bypassed completely. As far as I’m concerned, there is only one Freddy, Robert Englund, so, unless he’s signed up, I’m not interested. Just in case you were wondering how Robert Englund felt about the 2010 remake, this should clear things up.
