You would think, that by this time, all of the Freddy Krueger story has been told, what with four hundred thousand Nightmare on Elm Street films and all. Well, you'd be half right. It seems as if New Line is going back to the future and taking the Nightmare franchise on a new track, "rebooting" it in much the same way they did with The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
So, what does that mean? What it most likely means is that you can expect a "new" "grittier" and more "serious" Nightmare film, and then some dour sequels to finish it off with. Why, just look at the Halloween remake, and you'll get some idea of what you're in for. Oh, and we'd be very surprised to see Robert Englund wearing the claws, but you never know...
