In 1984, a new vision of horror was unleashed upon terrified moviegoers-a razor-gloved bogeyman who slashed his way through the children of those who had murdered him years before. In doing so, this cinematic monster would not just invade the dreams of his victims but give those watching a brand-new nightmare to fear forever.
His name was Freddy Krueger, and the man who created him was master of horror Wes Craven.
Since its release decades ago, A Nightmare on Elm Street has become synonymous with archetypical genre cinema. Now, go deeper than anyone ever has inside the making of this groundbreaking classic. Exclusive cast and crew interviews with those who survived the blood, sweat, and tears will take you through incredible behind-the-scenes triumphs, struggles, and controversies as they worked to bring Craven's vision to life.
No one would have imagined that the in-the-shadows, rancorous killer would become a global pop-culture phenomenon and the star of a franchise that would scare up nearly half a billion dollars at the box office. Firmly rooted in the mainstream, it has become clear that Freddy Krueger may never rest in peace.
Including rare and never-before-seen material, this extensively researched, comprehensive look back is the definitive account of the film that began what many have called the best, most frightening, and imaginative horror franchise in motion picture history.
And remember: if you think you know everything about Wes Craven's 1984 horror classic... you must be dreaming!
