Robert Englund Is Returning As Freddy Krueger In New Documentary

Robert Englund is sliding on his glove and sitting down in the makeup chair one last time as Freddy Krueger in the documentary ‘Nightmares in the Makeup Chair’. Back in 2014, Englund brought Freddy out of retirement and appeared in full wardrobe and makeup to treat fans to a once-in-a-lifetime experience at Chicago’s Flashback Weekend. Directed by Mike Kerz, the upcoming documentary goes behind the scenes at Flashback Weekend. We will see Englund in the makeup chair, sharing stories while FX master Robert Kurtzman transforms Englund into our favorite dream-stalking killer. It will “take fans on an exciting, fun, and emotional journey through Englund’s years as Freddy Krueger with stories and anecdotes, all while paying tribute to the legacy of Wes Craven.” I was inspired by the vintage photos of the legendary artist Jack Pierce applying the Frankenstein makeup to Boris Karloff.

A Killer Comes ‘When The Street Lights Go On’

Brent Morgen’s ‘When the Street Lights Go On’ just premiered as part of this year’s Sundance Film Festival, and we have the new trailer. Meant to be the pilot for a Hulu original series, the episode was written by Chris Hutton and Eddie O’Keefe, and is now independent and looking for a network. ‘When the Street Lights Go On’ is set in the summer of 1983. “A string of unusual occurrences in a small Illinois town culminate with the shocking murders is a popular high school girl and her teacher.
