Please. This movie is going to suck. Just like Friday the 13th, Halloween, Black Xmas and every other POS remake did.

“Jackie Earle Haley was the best option”

The 2 reasons this scrub was chosen is because
1. He played a pedo in Little Children so of course he should be in this movie.
2. All of those wannabe imdb casting directors/message board losers seen that movie and started lobbying for him to play Freddy.

I guess Alex Ovechkin should play Jason in the FT13th sequel? You know because he plays hockey. Man I should be an imdb casting director too!

And that stupid fuckin’ face. He looks like Mason Verger from Hannibal.

Watched it a couple more times, and have felt better about it each time. The IGN commentary of it really speaks to how I feel about it. The voice is great and the look isn’t corny. Done right, I sincerely believe the remake could make better of the original.

“From Producer Michael Bay”

Yeah, it’s gonna suck.

It’s also worth keeping in mind that the look they are going for is that of an actual burn victim, not for the scariest face they can create.

Upon further viewings, you can see that he does have that terrible burn victim look to him.

You are all making a HUGE mistake on judging the look and voice by this trailer alone. That is way too presumptuous. The series has so much potential and has never seen that potential realized. God, I just wish I could make it. Same with Friday the 13th. It’s like they have no faith in the material. Such a mistake. I really hope the rules balls.

I was all for it until after the jump and he talked and you saw his face…man it did look worse than a rubber mask! Anyone else think of Sling Blade when you heard him talk?!

No denying the film’s got a glossy look, but I rather expect it to be sucktacular. The voice and face are both all wrong. As a remake, “Friday the 13th” didn’t work, but since there was only minimal rehashing, it DID work as an above average sequel. There’s obviously too much rehashing going on for “Nightmare” to stand a chance of working on that secondary level. My guess is it’ll get minimal business and royally piss off longtime fans of the franchise.

I don’t want a Nightmare on Elm street remake… I’ll just keep my Johnny Depp and Robert Englund, thank you.

Started off great, lost a little edge by the end of it. I don’t want to see teens getting murdered every ten minutes. BORING! Jackie Earle Haley will be amazing.

Still has the sicko humor, but from what I saw they just rehased all the great scenes from Nightmare 1-5(any fan of the originals will think same and recognize everything in the teaser.), nothing really original other than slight tweaking of the back story on Freddy. The voice is all wrong aswell and they need the Freddy laugh too. The new Friday sucked ass so I really don’t have faith in this either.

Jackie Earle Haley was the best option IMO. His face there at the end though…. Hopefully that will be changed, looked worse then one of those cheap rubber freddy masks from a joke shop.
