I rated this movie before but this is what I really think about it. This is one of those rare incidences where the remake of a film is better then the original. To me I have to say this is one of those films.

The 2010 version of Nightmare gives you more information...it fills you in with the story of Freddy. It tells the tale of what happened to him, why he was burned, and why he is chasing these kids and killing them in their dreams.

This movie gives more of a visual affect towards those questions. In the original it very briefly goes by that Freddy worked at a preschool. This film they go in depth and with just those two words "in depth".

...for me, it makes this movie a hell of a lot better then the original. It is possibly one of my best horror films so good bye 1984 version say hello to the new Freddy :).
