#112 - "A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge" (1985) with Laramy Wells from "Moving Panels Podcast"
Manage episode 429654175 series 3242461
Wes Craven redefined horror and birthed a new kind of terror with his creation of Freddy Krueger, the disfigured dream stalker who haunts the nightmares of teenagers on Elm Street. But just when you thought it was safe to fall asleep again, Freddy returned with a vengeance in this 80s Flick sequel. This time, he's got his sights set on a new victim, Jesse Walsh, who discovers that his nightmares are all too real when Freddy attempts to take over his body.
So unpack the moving boxes, stay out of the locker room showers, and watch out for exploding birds as Tim Williams and guest co-host Laramy Wells from "Moving Panels Podcast" discuss “A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge” from 1985 on this episode of the 80s Flick Flashback Podcast.
Here are some additional behind-the-scenes trivia we were unable to cover on this episode:
- The school used in this film is also the same school used in "The Karate Kid" (1984).
- The last film in the original "A Nightmare on Elm Street" series in which Nancy's house is the focal point of Freddy's terror. The rest of the series focuses more on the town of Springwood, with the house making an occasional appearance. In the hybrid film "Freddy vs Jason" it was referenced that Lori lived in Freddy's house, but the scene was cut from the theatrical release (it does, however, appear in the Deleted Scenes section on the DVD release).
- This is the only film in the series not to use Charles Bernstein's original theme or a variation of it.
