Sounds great...
... now once he's in makeup someone quickly toss him onto a film set and have him make one last Freddy movie.

Re: Nightmares in the Makeup Chair (Robert Englund)
I like Englund and Freddy Krueger as much as the next guy but I don't need to see a documentary about applying his make-up (in hi-def!!). 
Freddy's make-up is no different than hundreds of people other make-up effects in movies that take hours to apply.
I wouldn't mind seeing some of the other aspects though, like Englund meeting fans and talking about his movie making experiences. I'll pass on the make-up nonsense though.

Sounds like it could be cool to me. I'm not even the biggest fan of Freddy or the Nightmare on Elm Street films but like Englund and classic horror plus documentaries about behind the scenes stuff like this always intrigue me.

I think it's more to hear his stories throughout the years playing Freddy and meeting fans. It just so happened that they filmed all this in 2014 when he attended a con in full makeup for fans and the first time since FvsJ

I don't think I'd buy it, but I'd watch it once if it was on Netflix or Amazon Prime. I've always thought Englund was an elegant speaker (similar to Wes Craven or Roger Corman) and I've always enjoyed hearing him speak about projects he's obviously passionate about.
