Read at your own risk, I provide this report from a test screening monkey with no confirmation or disclaimer, for the expressed purpose that you can waltz into the theatre with plausible deniability if you don’t like the sound of it.
To hell with the ones sites have been posting from the Comic-Con event, here’s the real thing. Finally we’re starting to see some progress with the publicity for A Nightmare on Elm Street, due out next April and making a presence at this year’s high profile event.
I will remain sceptical until its release next April, but the first image of the all-new Freddy Krueger has just made its way onto the net.
