With Halloween around the corner, there’s more than a few movie festivals going on around the world that are proving that every town does indeed have an Elm Street. For the recent birthday screening of Nightmare On Elm Street 2 for lead actor Mark Patton at Fantastic Fest, the organisers wanted to do something special for the man of the hour, which resulted in a call being made to SideSerf Cake Studio to whip up a dream treat.

Welcome to my nightmare! Freddy Krueger's got a new owner, as the late Wes Craven's estate has succeeded in reclaiming control of the Springwood Slaher who terrorised Elm Street so many years ago.

There's Nightmare on Elm Street cosplay, and then there's this costume ensemble that makes the Springwood Slasher appear as if he's walked straight out of the movies and into the real world.

Is there really another actor that can ever play the role of Freddy Krueger more effectively than Robert Englund himself.

Who’s the best in horror? Which movie monster stands tall above his contemporaries in the field? Let us know below, and let’s start a verbal fight while we’re at it. Welcome, to my nightmare...

Welcome to Critical Hit’s 31 days of horror! It’s the month of spookiness, of frights and jump scares and we’re ready to celebrate! Over the decades, pop culture has managed to create eerie atmospheres, scenes of terror that can’t be contained within a single genre and we’re looking back at the films and the movie maniac moments that had us squirming in our seats.

If rock ‘n roll can make a comeback, then how about one infamous Springwood Slasher? Because if you’re into movie maniacs and gore, then you’re probably very familiar with Freddy Krueger’s iconic Elm Street theme. A theme which shouldn’t have been buried, because it’s not dead. Just look at this upcoming Box of Souls: A Nightmare on Elm Street deluxe LP collection.
