PLUS Q&A WITH MIKE MUNCER FROM THE EVOLUTION OF HORROR PODCAST
Wes Craven. 1984
One, two Freddy’s coming for you! Holy moly it’s the Krueger, everyone’s favourite fedora sporting, teenage slaying, margarita face wearing maniacal janitor! A man so ugly he makes a toxic-wasted Emil from ‘Robocop’ look like 1980s Mickey Rourke! This ‘84 classic reinvented the slasher for a new generation of bubble gum chewin’, shoulder pads wearin’, zit faced poppin’ arcade junkies and mall rats. Robert Englund hams it up and Johnny Depp gets sucked in a bed (not for the first time, allegedly). Stay awake you crazy kids or it’s gonna be shlock all over your block. (Rated EEEEEEEEEXXXXXXXXXXX)
