When you watch the more serious films, Freddy Krueger IS something that can be considered actually scary.
First off, dreams are suppose to be a safe place.
And what makes the orginal so scary, is the fact that the dream sequences themselves look and feel so spooky.
Something the remake ALSO fails at.
Freddy dosen't just suddenly appear, like in the remake.
He quietly calls out your name, he makes you feel uneasy.
And than when he dose appear in the original, most times we see him like this..
Yeah, he's in the shadows. He's mysterious.
In fact, Freddy can be compared to Steven King's IT.
He knows exactly what frightens you most, and instead of just doing lazy jump scares (Michael Bay), he instead uses his dream magic to make that said fear appear wait in-front of you, and THAN do his jump scare..
Though I do give it SOME credit. The remake KINDA did the shadowy thing.
But Freddy just jumps straight to killing you. That's not Freddy.
He could of easily killed Tina in the beginning.. But he didn't, he left her traumatized, so that when he later dose kill her, it's far more effective.
Plus, even than, he still toys with her.
Appearing out of random places while chasing her, when he could of easily killed her straight away.
I'm not saying the remake is bad..
No wait.. Yes, I am.. It's FUCKING AWFUL!
They kept the mystery of Freddy, sure.
But what's the point of keeping him mysterious. If doing so doesn't make you feel uneasy.
We had no idea who this was, what he wanted, and why he was after us.. All we heard was that creepy laugh of his.
In fact, Robert Englund has very little lines in the orginal. He just laughs most of the time.
So.. Yeah.. I'm frggin pissed.
Even when Freddy became more silly in the later sequels. Even that is actually pretty scary.
Think about it.. He's ENJOYING this, his much more do you need in order to say "Well, I'm fucked"..
So.. Yeah.. Fuck you Micheal Bay!
Not too mention.. In the 1984 version. They never try to make us feel BAD for Freddy being killed.
We knew striaght away, that Freddy deserved EVERYTHING the parents did to him.

Fellowship of the Ring was playing on tv.
I watched for the first time in nearly four years.
These movies are even better than I remember.
The expression "one ring to rule them all" really IS how it happened.
Rings seem to some sort of powers in their world.
And Mordor is basically "hell".
So it's a ring from hell.
And this ring is as powerful as they get. It can brainwash anyone, and I mean ANYONE. Due to it's impartiality, beauty, and well, anything really.
But what I like about it.
Just about everything about this movie, gives off sort of a creepy vib.
But I like that in movies, makes me more into it.
So yeah.
LOVE IT!!

And during the game's final mission, "The Last Enemy That Shall Be Destroyed". Archor did not take part in Marston's murder.. So it's possible Fordham might not of been comfortable with killing John Marston, considering John did what they needed him to do.
That's all I got to say. I thought I'd have more.. But no.
What are your thoughts?
