| Original trailer is, of course, the original
trailer for A Nightmare On Elm St: The
Dream Warriors.
There are 7 documentary vignettes on this disc:
Fan Mail: A 45 second spot with Talk Show legend
Dick Cavett talking about how being in a film
like A nightmare on Elm Street increases your popularity amongst a fan base you
did not previously have: The Horror fan!!
Onward Christian Soldiers (8 minutes 30 seconds):
Wes Craven, Robert Englund, Rachael Talalay and
Bruce Wagner (who has the hairiest ears you will
ever see), Frank Darabont and Chuck Russell discuss
the origins of the script for Dream Warriors.
Snakes and Ladders (6 minutes 8 seconds): This
is a short discussion about the special effects
of Dream Warriors, specifically the 'Barking
Pig' and the phallic 'nerf Freddy'.
That's Showbiz (2 minutes): A funny story
told by Robert Englund about the Joys of Showbiz.
Training 8's (4 minutes 10 seconds): A
few more discussions about the origins of the
ideas, including the immortal 'Welcome to
the Prime Time, Bitch!' line.
The House That Freddy Built (3 minutes 2 seconds):
Interviews with Heather Langenkamp and Jack Sholder
(director of Nightmare on Elm St 2) about how
New Line became the company they are today due
to the popularity of Freddy.
Burn Out (1 minute 12 seconds): A funny short
story told by John Saxon about how quickly a movie
crew's attitude can go from 'Yay!
We are making a movie." To "When the
Hell is this gonna finish?'
These vignettes, and the ones from Nightmare
on Elm Streets 1 and 2, seem to be part of a larger
documentary that must have been made about the
series at some point, as a lot of the stories
overlap and seem like parts of other tales.
Eighties Hair metal fans will love the Music
Video: Dokken – Dream Warriors.
Another small note about the packaging, when
on a shelf with the Nightmare on Elm Street 1
and 2 DVDs, the spines combine to make a picture
of Freddy himself. |
