Episode 129: A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984)
Wes Craven is a mad man. This week the team takes a look at how a proven director risked it all on an original idea that changed the horror genre forever. Also, has a pretty sweet theme song. That's right, we're talking about the landmark film A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET from the legendary Wes Craven.
Join us as we showcase a transitional time in the director's career, where he changed the course of horror by sheer originality, all with the help of a struggling studio and a striped sweater. Opinions are... divided? Certainly different. But the the team agrees on one thing for sure: steak knife fingers is a pretty terrifying teenager extermination device. Oh, and dreams.
Now how about a 5 star rating for a debuting Johnny Depp in a crop top? OH AND A TERRIFFYING LULLABY.
