Best Wes Craven Film

In anticipation of the Elm Street remake hitting theaters next week with Jackie Earle Haley as Freddy, and continuing the horror theme from yesterday.


I didn't wanna take up 3 spots all with the Scream trilogy, thus the exclusion of pt 3, and from all that I've ever heard about Cursed was that it was a total trainwreck.

    People Under the Stairs is tragically underrated.

    Nightmare. it's a classic, used to love it as a kid... most of the others i didn't see until i was a teenager, so they don't really hold the same nostalgic value.

    The remake of Last House on the Left was disturbing.

    Anyway, I vote Nightmare on Elm Street.

    I'd say the original was probably more disturbing

    damn, that sucks. This guy's on like the Mt Rushmore of horror.

    ya know if Scream 4 had been successful, supposedly they had a full story fleshed out for a whole new trilogy, 5 and 6. But it kinda wasn't. But if so, would he have made both of those other films by now?

    Nightmare, always.

    But Scream was perfect for when it was released. Completely reinvented the genre.

    As a huge horror fan he will be sorely missed.

    I was always a big fan of New Nightmare also, never really hear anybody talk about that one. I thought it was pretty different and fun.

    I'm the New Nightmare voter. Loved that one. Loved how Craven inserted himself into the storyline. 10 years before Stephen King did it in the Dark Tower series.

    But kudos to Scream, it was somewhat of a cultural phenomenom.
