Freddy's (not) Dead

Robert Englund as Freddy Krueger

Platinum Dunes will re-launch the "Nightmare on Elm Street" movie series. The producers (Michael Bay, Brad Fuller and Andrew Form) are hoping to focus part of the new movie on Krueger's backstory. Expect a lot of hate (as Freddy was murdered by angry parents).

This is much like what they did on Star Wars. Prequels, prequels.

Oh, also expect the Freddy Krueger toys's prices to go up.
