Acclaimed music video director Samuel Bayer finally makes it to the big screen with the opening of A Nightmare On Elm Street, a reboot of the old horror franchise. Jackie Earle Healey takes over for Robert Englund as Freddy Kruger and a new cast of teenagers ready to be snuffed-out as they sleep.
NYMag's Vulture blog has an interview with Bayer, charting his journey from "Teen Spirit" to Teen Slaughter. (Speaking of which, isn't Freddy's trademark sweater kind of like something Kurt Cobain used to wear?)
