Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy
I've been wanting...needing to see this for a long time. 4 hours or not I had to see this, an in-depth look at the entire A Nightmare On Elm Street franchise.
To me this was just pure fun, I learned so much about the film series and it was great to hear what other people thought of the films, including those who made them and starred in them.
This is really hard to do a review for so all I can really say is that if you love A Nightmare On Elm Street and you like learning behind the scenes facts and trivia then give this a go. I'll be buying this for sure. Liked it alot more than His Name Was Jason and H25: Halloween 25 years later. And I prefer Myers and Voorhees to Krueger. That says something.
The one thing I learned was at the end of Freddy Vs. Jason they were supposed to be fighting in hell and Pinhead was supposed to come out and say "now gentlemen, what seems to be the problem?". But due to license issues they never filmed it and that is a damn shame. Would have made an awesome ending.
Give this a watch, you won't regret it.

SCRE4M
This movie was awesome! And I had the privledge of seeing the midnight premiere of this film and while I didn't get my hopes up, I wasn't disapointed. By far the best film after the original. It's hip like the first, has a sexy young cast and had plenty of laughs as well as some brutal kills. This movie delivered. It made me proud to be a Scream fan again.
Soon after her book release (and the success of it) Sidney Prescot finds a bloody knife and a picture of her face in the trunk of her rental car. The knife belonging to a crime scene the night before in which some girls were killed in the style of original murders. Sidney, Duey and Gale as well as some new names join in on the fun of finding the killer while they're all looking suspicious. This movie is fun, go see it!
I love how they had so many movie references in this one just like the first film. They mention Saw 4 (and trash it as well as the whole series) and Anthony Anderson (who is hillarious in this film) played a cop named Anthony Perkins. Now if you don't know who that is then don't admit it because you should. They also mention Robert Rodriguez in a cool way. They have a few other honorable mentions within the movie including having Suspiria on dvd.
4 stars for me. Check the trailer.
