The latest in the long line of horror remakes by Michael Bay’s production company Platinum Dunes is billed as a ‘Re-Imagining’ of Wes Craven’s 1984 classic. Directed by Samuel Bayer; a filmmaker best known for music videos rather than feature films. The film is the first of the series not to feature Robert Englund as Freddy Kruger, the iconic murderer is this time played by Jackie Earle Haley (Watchmen). The plot of this remake is identical to the original film, as Nancy (Rooney Mara) battles a mysterious figure from her past who stalks her in her dreams. This similarity with the original film is actually one of the many problems with this rebooted version. [click to continue…]
