It’s alarming to consider this fact: NIGHTMARE 3 (perhaps the best of the entire series) is 30 years old.. I recall this film being in theaters as a small child.. I recall watching the trailers for NIGHTMARE 4 on TV and my grandmother would angrily shut the TV station off…

Yes.. the memories. 

And now these new figures are going to increase the nostalgia..

In the mean time, check this one out:

Robert Englund is back in the Freddy Krueger makeup in the new documentary “NIGHTMARES IN THE MAKEUP CHAIR”. You’ll enter the makeup room and see the entire process as special makeup effects artist Robert Kurtzman transforms Robert Englund into Freddy Krueger once again! Coming in 2017. Visit www.FreddyDoc.com for details.

Freddy fans getting their wish: Robert Englund is coming back

Just for one documentary .. not a work of fiction, but a culmination of Englund’s entire life as Freddy Krueger..

EW had the exclusive story.. Highlights:

Directed by Mike Kerz, the film finds Englund recalling his years playing Elm Street villain Freddy Krueger and paying tribute to filmmaker Wes Craven while makeup effects artist Robert Kurtzman transforms the actor into the feared dream-stalker. The film will also track Englund as he meets fans and Freddy and is interviewed in full makeup by horror host Svengoolie.

“Nightmares in the Makeup Chair is my love letter to the Nightmare on Elm Streetseries and to practical makeup,” says Englund in a statement. “I’ve always been in awe of the multi-talented makeup effects artists. From sketching to sculpting, they realize the design. Then to the fine precision of the molding and the manufacturing of the makeup appliances which are nearly paper thin. And then, the application process where I sit in the makeup chair and I become their living canvas as they glue me in and paint the appliances. This documentary not only captures their talent, but I think it might inspire a new generation of practical effects artists. I was happy to become Freddy once again to share the makeup process with the fans.”

The swan song of the 20th century will be complete now with Fred appearing in the Fedora one last time..
DOCU STYLE..

But … what fans may fear: This is probably Englund saying by to fans in Freddy garb to drop the news that he is never coming back again..

This scene from Wes Craven’s NEW NIGHTMARE– a film I still say is one of the scariest and should have been the ‘end all ‘ of the Nightmare series..

The premise was genius.. The creative nature of the movie seemingly is under appreciated…

And Robert Englund, in this photo, looks all too comfortable with the new fitted glove.

I am actually not happy Freddy is coming back. Again.

It should be dead, It should have been dead last century.. 

Maybe I’m the only one who will dare to say that.

THE NIGHTMARE THAT WASN’T

THE NIGHTMARE THAT WASN’T

When I was a young pre-teen in the 1980s, NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET part 3, the DREAM WARRIORS, sort of changed my conception of horror.. it became campy, silly and fun.. Yes, Freddy was a menacing creature, whose background was that of a child molester and killer, but somehow Robert Englund turned Wes Craven’s character into a charming and almost likeable trickster in the in the third NIGHTMARE…
