I've just ordered the German Blu Ray of the original and I'm really looking forward to seeing it in hi-def!
The first was a masterpiece! I must've rented it out countless times when it was first released on video back in the eighties.
I had a crush on Ms Langenkamp!
Freddy's Revenge was unintentionally hilarious,and compared to the first,was such a disappointment,but it was still the talk of the playground.
Dream Warriors was a big improvement with the goings-on taken a tad more serious than part II.
The Dream Master was a washout,as was The Dream Child.
Freddy's Dead,I saw at the cinema in 3D and to be honest was only slightly better than the previous two.
With Freddy now less frightening than Right Said Fred,Craven came along and put some much needed nastiness back into the series.A winner,and once agin the return of Langenkamp!
Freddy Vs Jason...well,what can I say?
It was exciting that two iconic screen slashers were pit against one another,and it was fun to watch,but the characters and 'plot' that surrounded both maniacs was,well let's be honest,abysmal.
Although I'm not a fan of the Hollywood remake machine's output,I have to say,the trailers I've seen so far look promising.
This remake has a lot to live up to.....
