Brad Fuller blogs Elm Street reshoots and posts photos


Brad Fuller, Platinum Dunes producer, blogged about the A Nightmare on Elm Street remake reshoots today. This is what he wrote:

While many of you are enjoying a Christmas break I am working everyday on Elm Street. I have read all the rumors and want to make sure that you have the facts. We are doing a couple of days of reshooting Elm Street. People seem to be making a big deal about that fact. Elm Street is our 8th film and we’ve had reshoots for every film. As I have stated here many times, I try to read everything and I pay attention. The fans input has always been so valuable to me, and Elm Street is no exception. I don’t want to get specific about what we are shooting, but suffice to say we heard you. After you’ve seen the film we can discuss what was reshot. I will say this though- nothing beats seeing Jackie back as Freddy- he works so hard to perfect his portrayal and leaves nothing to chance.

Fuller goes on about the Friday the 13th sequel and teases regarding upcoming projects. Click here to read the full post.

Also, Fuller posted photos of the Springwood Diner via Twitter (the name not as cheeky as the “Crave Inn”).

Nightmare alumni star in FEARnet’s Fear Clinic


Fear Clinic, FEARnet’s new horror Web series, stars Nightmare on Elm Street alumni Robert Englund and Lisa Wilcox, along with other faces from horror. Check out the latest episodes here.

About Fear Clinic

Horror legend Robert Englund (Freddy Krueger of the Nightmare on Elm Street blockbuster franchise) stars as the sinister, maniacal genius Dr. Andover. His obsession: to cure humanity’s worst fears. His method: the Fear Chamber, a device of his creation that can bring any worst fear to life. With Dr. Andover’s extreme methods his unwilling patients will be cured for good…or die trying!

The spine-tingling action of Fear Clinic will unfold over five webisodes. Each will spotlight Dr. Andover’s eerily extreme methods to help a patient at the clinic conquer their greatest fears: from hydrophobia (fear of water), scotophopia (fear of the dark), and entomophobia (fear of insects), to claustrophobia (fear of small spaces) and misophobia (fear of being contained with germs or dirt).

To further whet the horror enthusiasts’ appetite for blood, acting icons from three of Hollywood’s biggest horror movie franchises will appear together. Robert Englund will be joined on screen by fellow genre megastar Kane Hodder (Jason Voorhees in the Friday the 13th franchise) as well as Danielle Harris (Rob Zombie’s Halloween).

The project is directed by Robert Hall (Laid to Rest) with effects from his company Almost Human (Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Quarantine, The Burrowers) from a script by Aaron R. Drane and executive produced by Mark B. Johnson and Jim Burns.
