Thinking back on when I saw the Original Nightmare on Elm Street, I remember being scared and exited at the same time. There was not a lot of gore but it left a lot to the imagination. The remake of this childhood scarefest was not the same, it had great special effects, some great "One-Liners" but so much more gore. I would suggest you see this if you like re-makes but dont expect it to bring you to the same "edge of your seat" point like Mr. Robert England did in the 80's.
