It might be good, but it's not really going to be an Elm Street movie.

Like, you can re-imagine a lot of slasher icons, because most of the time they have no personality of their own. They're silent, murdering crazies. But to change Freddy's actor and style so significantly makes this into a whole different animal.

I'm interested in seeing some of the new nightmare scenes, just with a different style and all, but it looks like they're relying a decent bit on material from the original which... is fairly disappointing tbh. They don't really need updating. The first one is perfectly creepy in its own way, y'know?

We'll see, I guess!
