Weekend Movie News Wrap Up: July 27, 2008

Man, where does time go?

Hard to believe that The Dark Knight is now a distant memory (well, I can still hear the cash registers ringing).

It’s now time to look forward to a new batch of movies.  This week we have a horror remake bonanza featuring:

Leonardo DiCaprio entering The Twilight Zone, the return of Freddie Kruger in A Nightmare on Elm Street, MGM turn on the television and revisit Poltergeist and The Wolfman goes live.

Nightmare On Elm Street To Be Rebooted

Nightmare On Elm Street To Be Rebooted

According to Dictionary.com:

re-boot-ed, re-boot-ing, re-boots
To turn (a computer or operating system) off and then on again; restart.

Until recently I’d never heard this word used in reference to films. I think that the first time was Batman Begins. Now every other film seems to be a “reboot”.

Now A Nightmare on Elm Street is getting the “reboot” treatment via Michael Bay’s Platinum Dunes production shingle.

To be honest with you, I’ve never been a fan of the Nightmare films - they’ve never been of much worth, but they were schlocky entertainment and had a certain charm. They were a cheap type of horror that isn’t made by studios anymore.
