Nightmare on Elm Street Remake Review

The very first review for the remake of Nightmare on Elm Street has hit the web and according to AICN its your typical Hollywood hororr film but its full of spooks and scares. 

Typical Hollywood grindhouse, "Bread and circuses: it makes the masses happy. Hey, there are plenty of scare moments!". This film is chock-full of heart-stopping jump out and scare you moments... the audience was definitely given some jumps, however it's overdone and hides the lack of any real horror. The cheap scares become like little Snickers bites in a bag of Halloween candy: a quick jolt but soon forgotton. This would be fine if there were some good psycological horror thrown in, like a juicy steak for a more substantial meal, however all that's left is a sugar crash.

Go give the entire review a read at AICN but be aware it is filled with spoilers so if you plan to see the film you may want to hold off reading it.
