....hahahahahahaha. I dunno why but the way I imagine you saying it, without even knowing what you sound like, is just hilarious after I read that post

Re: A Nightmare on Elm Street about to become A Nightmare on Remake Row
I want to see this, but I get really freaked out by horror movies. I might have to wait till it's on DVD and watch it during the day with some friends. I'm a grown man and I just can't handle being locked up in a theatre and unable to look away or stop hearing the awful sounds... the music.. it's too loud and I can't take it.

I saw a trailer for this last night with Kick Ass. While it didn't look terrible, it didn't leave me clamoring for more. What's depressing is that a lot of the young audience seemed to like it.

It wouldn't shock me if there were people that think this is a brand new movie, and not a remake.

On that note...
Spoiler:
I've gotta say I think it actually works. Granted, I need to see the completed film before I can complete judge, but I actually feel a little creeped out looking at that, just like when I was a kid and I saw The Dream Master for the first time.
* or maybe Dream Master creeps me to this day out because of this:

For some reason I was little more intrigued last night after seeing footage on Leno. We have a midnight release and if some friends go, I'll check it out.

I found that somewhat disturbing at age 12, but later saw it for what it was, set up for another punchline.

Oh, there's definitely a set-up punchline, but I have a thing about roaches and seeing a human sized one flailing about in flypaper with human legs kicking about is just WAY too much for me.

There's an action figure of it now which is even more bizarre.

Sooooo... looks like I'll be seeing this tomorrow after all. My buddy and I feel like, as huge horror fans, it's our duty to at least see it so we can either praise it, or properly talk shit on it. Either way, I'm going in with expectations that are extremely low, so here's to hoping it can exceed them.

Plus, I've seen every Nightmare movie since Part 2 on opening night. Kinda have to keep up the tradition. But I'm probably going to do a matinee.

No (to both questions), it's from some line by Mezco.
If I remember correctly, the reason Freddy turned her into a cockroach was more in line with what he did to Taryn in Dream Warriors. Both of them were really tough chicks that wouldn't take any s * * t from someone like Freddy and, to take them down a peg as a total f * * k you to their defiance, he threw their major insecurties - Taryn, her former heroin addiction, and Debbie was being catagorized as something weak and helpless - back at their faces in spades.
