Binge Movie Aftertaste – A Nightmare on Elm Street Parts 3 and 4 Retrospective w/ Super Marcey
Welcome back to Prime Time, bitches! After finishing off some Godfather business last week, it is time to continue the Aftertaste’s Halloween themed retrospective by diving back into the Nightmare on Elm Street series.
After hitting pay dirt with A Nightmare on Elm Streets 1 and 2, New Line Cinema knew they had an excuse to print money on their hands. But the mixed response to Part 2 made them realize that if they continued stories involving the character of Freddy Krueger, they should probably turn back to his creator.
Enter Wes Craven, who along with Bruce Wagner (creator of the Oliver Stone produced 90s TV show Wild Palms) turned in a script which New Line deemed too fantastical to film. After a script polish by a young Frank Darabont (The Green Mile, The Walking Dead), the resulting film ended up being among the most well received of the Elm Street films.
Join the returning Super Marcey and me on a journey to find out if we do in fact agree. And then continue to listen as we dissect the Craven endorsed Renny Harlin sequel A Nightmare on Elm Street Part 4: The Dream Master. How many explosions are there, how bad are Freddy’s lines, and what the hell is he doing wearing sunglasses?!
