A Nightmare on Elm Street gets a Remake

In the pointless remake news category, Michael Bay (damn you, Michael Bay) along with the folks behind the remakes of Hitcher and Texas Chainsaw Massacre will be producing an utterly senseless and pointless remake of A Nightmare on Elm Street. I guess they ran out of sequels, so now we’ll get a remake. Does anyone actually want a remake? Probably not, but in the current atmosphere in Hollywood where remaking anything with name recognition is the name of the game, it’s inevitable. On the semi-bright side though, this means that Star Trek will literally never die, just get much much worse. Considering the anemic Hitcher remake and the lame Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake, the formula here will apparently be to cast the CW starlet of the moment, I’m guessing either Kirsten Bell or whoever’s on Gossip Girl and probably top that of by not including Robert Englund or just having him make some sort of retarded cameo appearance. I’ll say it again folks, The Rise of Leslie Vernon.
