Ep1040: Here We Go Again: A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET (1984 / 2010) - LIVE Round Table Review

Kicking the Seat

Earth's Mightiest Critics celebrate forty years of atrocious fashion and questionable cutlery with a look back at A Nightmare on Elm Street!

But this isn't your run-of-the-mill retrospective: It's the second installment of our remake series, "Here We Go Again!" That's right, we'll be looking at two incarnations of the Springwood Slasher--both Robert Englund's iconic 1984 bogeyman and Jackie Earle Haley's (ahem) noble attempt to resurrect the character in 2010.

Join the Internet's dreamiest panel as we talk Craven, casting, and cowardly cash-grabs! We'll also take your questions, comments, and SuperChats!

Plus: Ian will talk some of the pros and cons of Warner Bros' recently released 4K version of the 1984 film!
