Wes Craven's New Nightmare (1994)

£0.00


Country: US
Technical: Foto-Kem colour 112m
Director: Wes Craven
Cast: Heather Langenkamp, Robert Englund, John Saxon, Wes Craven, Miko Hughes

Synopsis:

In the midst of a freak series of earth tremors the cast and director of the Freddy films begin having nightmares, in particular the lead actress, who receives spook phone calls and is soon fighting to save her family from the evil which has revived through neglect.

Review:

Containing the purgative argument for horror films which states that so long as fairy tales and ghost stories are told the evils contained in them remain locked away, the action rapidly becomes identified with the script the movies' creator is working on currently and as such disappears up its own self-referential rectum. There are moments of humour and visual flourishes besides the tired repetition of old devices.
