remake of Nightmare on Elm St wasnt so bad..
granted the original is a classic...
also if they would have cast Robert Englund to play Freddy in this remake then it might have been better..
The "newer" Freddy looked basically like a burn victim...nothing scary at all as compared to the OF Elm St Freddy...
I enjoyed it but wasn't "wowed" .... if they would have done a few things differently this remake would have really been much better
