For those who grew up nodding to the glorious New Wave and Synthpop of the eighties, the image of Fred Krueger slowly slicing an unwilling victim’s flesh open with his hand full of blades should be a familiar affair. As the remake of the horror movie classic, A Nightmare on Elm Street, had been highly discussed and anticipated, many wonder how Michael Bay and Samuel Bayer would fare in recreating the movie. To answer that very pressing question for fans and those who were significantly disturbed by one of horror film’s most notorious antagonists, the trailer to the 2010 remake was just released yesterday. While the movie isn’t set to release until April 2010, the trailer should be a fun prep for the upcoming Halloween festivities.
