What a pile of...

from Los Angeles, CA
Let me preface this by letting anyone reading this aware that the Freddy character has literally given me nightmares since I was about 4. I was too young to even see the movie, but triggered by a poster my oldest brother had, I still had fears of falling asleep and dreaming about him without even knowing that that idea was the basic premise of the movie.
I was nervous about seeing the remake, mostly because I don't particularly want to trigger anything now, even in my mid-20s. Yes...I do occasionally still have Freddy nightmares. Original Freddy is terrifying. New Freddy is laughably bad.
I admit that I was tense in the beginning and did start to feel a bit scared during the first act. By the halfway point in the movie, I had already relaxed and begun giggling at how horrible the acting and storyline had been, the terrible special effects, and the fact that new Freddy literally looks like he's wearing a mask instead of looking more like an actual burn victim? Come on!
I suddenly remember why I've been avoiding just about every movie remake since the trend began in the past few year. THEY MISS THE POINT, AND THEY SUCK.
Michael Bay...just stop already. No one likes you.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
