Podcasts about new nightmare

All these years later, we know FREDDY'S DEAD was far from the “final nightmare”. Freddy went on to fight Jason Voorhees, be meta in New Nightmare, and get a grim makeover in 2010. But word on the street is Rachel Talalay's Elm Street entry was meant to be the end of Freddy at the time. Does that context make it a better or worse movie? And can we ever come to terms with the darkness and campiness fighting to co-exist in this franchise?TIMELINE00:01:26 NES00:02:10 Feedback!00:09:20 Real Talk00:56:20 The Future & Patreon Stuff- Interested in more Contrarians goodness?

Before Scream made meta-horror mainstream, Wes Craven created something truly unique: a horror film where the actors played themselves, filmed in the real New Line Cinema offices, exploring what happens when fictional evil breaks into reality.Freddy Krueger had officially died in Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare in 1991, and from 1984 his character had evolved from terrifying villain to quipping and comedic, and New Line Cinema had already started merchandising the character. Realizing that maybe they had killed Freddy too soon, New Line wanted a way to resurrect him without actually resurrecting him. There was always something deeply unnerving about putting Krueger on a pedestal, and no-one thought it more than his original creator, Wes Craven… Wes Craven's New Nightmare cleverly blurs the line between fiction and reality, creating a unique meta-narrative, starring original final girl Heather Langenkamp as herself, focusing on her journey from horror star to mother and how that reflects the personal impact of the franchise on her fictional life. Craven specifically wanted to focus on how horror movies affect children, showcasing the blurred boundaries between protection and temptation. Despite its initial box office struggles, New Nightmare has gained a cult following, mostly in the wake of Wes Craven's next project, Scream, which took what New Nightmare had attempted and refined it. Wes Craven said that Scream was a movie for people who watch horror movies, and New Nightmare was a movie for people who make horror movies. Scream is credited for refreshing the slasher, but we all know New Nightmare is Wes Craven's real life meta masterpiece.I would love to hear your thoughts on Wes Craven's New Nightmare !Verbal Diorama is now an award-winning podcast!

Subscribe to Does It Fly? Pod: https://www.youtube.com/@doesitflypod?sub_confirmation=1On DOES IT FLY?, we explore the science and story logic behind your favorite pop culture topics. Today, we're asking: if you die in your dreams, will you die in real life, like we see in the Nightmare on Elm Street movies?“Welcome to prime time…”Freddy Krueger“One, two, Freddy's coming for you…three, four, better lock the door…five, six, grab your crucifix…seven, eight, better stay up late.” For some of us, horribly scarred by R-rated horror movies in heavy rotation on HBO as kids, this little nursery rhyme first heard in A Nightmare on Elm Street was about as well known as the Pledge of Allegiance. It's a simple, memorable admonition to not fall asleep lest serial killer Freddy Krueger visit you in your dreams to make sure you won't wake up that held considerable power over our imaginations. But it's also so much more.A Nightmare on Elm Street, as well as its parade of sequels (of…varying quality, but we'll get to that) taps into a certain primal fear of the unknown. Sleep is one of the little deaths in our life. We surrender ourselves to forces we don't truly understand, where we then are bombarded with symbolic narratives as our brains keep firing while our bodies rest. The simple question of “if I go to sleep, what if I don't wake up?” is one that every child has asked their parents. And there's that long standing urban legend that if you die in your dream, well, your real life body will follow.Is there any truth to that? If you die in your dreams, will you ACTUALLY die in real life? And what about the actual science of dreams and sleep? And how the heck did Wes Craven and friends weave it all together to create one of the most compelling horror stories of all time?Check out the latest episode of Does it Fly? to find out! And…let's hope we don't put you to sleep. Put some coffee on or something, geez!https://youtu.be/h0A0QX0nH0cFURTHER VIEWINGVirtually everything we cover in terms of the dream logic of Freddy Krueger and this franchise can be found in Wes Craven's original A Nightmare on Elm Street, a true classic of ‘80s horror and one of the most influential films of its kind of all time!And yes, the rest of the franchise is kind of hit and miss, but they're all entertaining as hell. If you ONLY watch one of the sequels, check out A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: The Dream Warriors, which is generally beloved and the best of the bunch. But for you Scream fans (another Wes Craven masterpiece), you might also want to give Wes Craven's New Nightmare a look, as it's almost the prototype for Scream!And if all that is old (and ratty) hat to you, maybe it's time to check out the brilliant Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy documentary.FURTHER READINGDo you want to delve a little deeper into the facts, concepts, and stories Hakeem and Tamara referenced in today's episode? Of course you do! A Quick Overview of SleepNot just the different stages of sleep, but a breakdown of what can go wrong during them, can be found here!Night TerrorsWhile that sounds like it could be a movie title, it's an actual scientific term, and these ain't your average nightmare! But those can lead to…Sudden Unexplained Nocturnal Death SyndromeAnd while this one sounds like a really awful band name, it is one of the cruxes of the fear of dying in your dreams.Lucid DreamingIf you want to actual kick Freddy's ass while you sleep, then you'd better master the art of lucid dreaming!

Forgotten Horror 7 kicks off with "Wes Craven's New Nightmare" (1994), the meta slasher that dared to blur the lines between fiction and reality.Both Mike Butler and Mike Field appreciate some of the ideas here—bringing Freddy Krueger into the “real” world, playing with Heather Langenkamp as herself, and giving Wes Craven and Robert Englund roles in their own nightmare. But as the Mikes discuss, the film doesn't quite go far enough with its meta concept. Instead, it feels like wasted potential: not enough scares, not enough exploration of Craven himself, and too few moments where the horror fully delivers.The Mikes also take a detour into the world of slashers at large, debating who their favorite killers are and where Freddy stands in the pantheon of horror icons.So sharpen your claws, flip the script, and join Forgotten Cinema as Forgotten Horror 7 gets underway!Who's your favorite classic horror film slasher? Let us know in the comments below!

What happens when the monster from the movie screen steps into your real life? Wes Craven's "New Nightmare" takes us on a mind-bending journey that blurs the boundaries between fiction and reality in ways that kinda feel fresh nearly three decades later.When actress Heather Langenkamp (playing herself) begins experiencing strange phone calls and disturbing dreams, she discovers that the character she portrayed in the original "Nightmare on Elm Street" has become tragically relevant to her actual life. As earthquakes shake Los Angeles and her young son Dylan begins exhibiting troubling behavior, Heather realizes that something has crossed over from the world of fiction—something that has taken the form of Freddy Krueger but represents something far more ancient and malevolent.The genius of "New Nightmare" lies in how it transforms familiar horror elements into something unexpectedly profound. Wes Craven (also playing himself) theorizes that horror stories serve as a containment vessel for ancient evils, and when the Nightmare franchise ended, that evil needed somewhere new to go. This clever concept elevates what could have been just another sequel into a thoughtful meditation on storytelling itself. Robert Englund delivers his most nuanced performance as both himself and a darker, more menacing version of Freddy, while Langenkamp brings authentic vulnerability to her role as a mother fighting to protect her child from forces beyond understanding.From the terrifying freeway sequence to the unsettling dream-within-a-dream moments, "New Nightmare" delivers genuine scares while making us question what's real and what's fabricated. Whether you're revisiting this 1994 classic or discovering it for the first time, you'll find yourself thinking about its implications long after the credits roll. Sweet dreams aren't guaranteed.

Horror fans, your favorite nightmare-inducing podcast is back! After a refreshing summer break, we're ready to plunge back into the depths of horror cinema – both the critically acclaimed gems and the delightfully terrible misfires that make us question our life choices.Mark your calendars for September 13th when the full Screams and Streams crew reunites to kick off our return with Wes Craven's meta-horror masterpiece "New Nightmare" (1994). This fan-favorite marks our re-entry into 90s horror territory, and we couldn't be more excited to dissect what made this self-referential Freddy Krueger revival so significant. Don't worry, we're also subjecting ourselves to "Leprechaun 2" immediately after – because we believe in balance, and what better way to appreciate great horror than by contrasting it with something truly painful?We've got an exciting lineup planned as we continue through the 90s, including a special fan-suggested Christmas horror film that's been on Mike's personal wishlist for ages. Speaking of suggestions – they're pouring in through our website, and we love it! While we tackle films chronologically (which means some patience may be required), every suggestion gets added to our master queue. Follow us on Instagram @ScreamStreamPod for trailer highlights, movie updates, and our signature "sinister sips" recipes that pair perfectly with each frightful feature.

Welcome to the Revenge of Podcast, your weekly dose of chaos and cultural critique! This week, we're recapping a weekend packed with events that left us completely exhausted. With a new cafe and some seriously wild stories, we're diving headfirst into the absurdity of it all.A Good Muff & Hot Messes: We recap a hectic weekend that included the last LotZilla of the summer and a soft opening for our cafe. Coral, feeling the effects of the weekend, showed up looking like a "hot mess". She credits her favorite new drink, "the Muff," for saving her.Slasher World & Queer Kinks: We discuss the new Slasher World retail experience, a horror-themed setup with iconic locations like the Michael Myers House. This leads to a discussion of the meta-horror film New Nightmare and the surprisingly gay subtext of Nightmare on Elm Street 2. We even talk about the reality of gay bars, including an anecdote about a "puppy pride" party where men in dog masks play with water bottles.The Honey Don't Review: In an unhinged review of the film Honey, Don't, Coral raves about the movie, despite its low Rotten Tomatoes scores, for its "filthy" scenes. She recounts a bar scene that was "the most intense thing I've ever seen" and even ran into a Revenge Of fan in the theater.Feuds, Feet, and Fantasy: We get into a heated debate about wearing flip-flops with jeans ("That is g*y as f*ck" ), the disgust of walking around a house in just socks, and the strange practice of wearing "nighttime socks" to bed. Coral even shares her WikiFeet rating, revealing one foot is "shattered at 1.0".This episode is a high-octane rollercoaster of chaos, controversy, and comedy you won't want to miss!New episodes every Thursday.Only at Revenge Of — where the hot dogs are questionable and the gossip is unhinged.00:00 Introduction and Hosts00:34 Labor Day Discussion01:15 Weekend Recap02:22 Slasher World Experience05:06 Freddy Krueger and Horror Movies07:59 Gay Bars and Kink Parties13:28 Gay News and Twilight Saga18:41 Flip Flops and Jeans Rant20:35 The Importance of House Shoes21:02 Foot Ratings and Wiki Feet21:41 Nighttime Socks and Cold Feet22:42 Flip Flops and Dirty Feet23:45 Downton Abbey Recap32:45 Cole's Corner: Movie Review

This week on Summer Slash, Johnny Spoiler bites into a forgotten Polish vampire gem, I Like Bats, and slashes through the meta madness of Wes Craven's New Nightmare—the Freddy movie where reality and horror collide like never before.

Mike's pencil is sharpened and Tom's memory is ready because it's time to pitch sequels to the Ghoulies series! You'll hear which of us was so excited by the prospect of more Ghoulie movie that he created two pitches, which of us decided to follow the model of a 1943 original film starring a famous animal, which of us drew inspiration from Scream 3 but should of drawn inspiration from Wes Craven's New Nightmare and one sequel pitch that was the obvious choice for any movie series heading into a fifth film.

Lee is back with the second of his three-part look at slasher films from North America produced in the 1990s. As the genre went on to the middle of the decade it still seemed directionless, throwing whatever at the wall and seeing what sticks, and often just trying to do what worked in the 1980s... until a little film called "Scream" appeared on the scene. --Dylan Tells Heather About Chase & And Now Heeeere's Freddy from "Wes Craven's New Nightmare" (1994) --J.

While New Nightmare has its moments of creativity and strong performances, it ultimately falls short of delivering the thrills and chills that fans expect from a Nightmare on Elm Street film. It's a thought-provoking entry in the franchise, but one that lacks the cohesive storytelling and visceral scares that made the original films classics. For die-hard fans of the series, it may be worth a watch, but for those seeking a truly terrifying experience, it may leave you wanting more.

That's life on the fault line when we discuss meta earthquakes, leather pants, wooden boys and awkward cameos. It's the attack of the demon fanboy as we talk Wes Craven's New NIghtmare from 1994

Welcome to another episode of the Following Films Podcast! In this episode, I sit down with the incredible Stephen Graham Jones, celebrated author, and horror mastermind, to discuss his recent participation in the documentary series First Word on Horror. We'll unpack his unique perspective on the genre, I ask highly specific questions about The Only Good Indians, and we chat about Wes Craven's iconic Scream, a film that redefined the slasher genre—along with some fun tangents, including my (possibly) miscredited nod to the house from Wes Craven's New Nightmare. Is that Mike Deluccas's house? So sit back, relax, and join us for a conversation full of surprises, insights, and, of course, a little horror.For more information on First Word on Horror, visit ⁠https://etchstudio.substack.com/

Wes Craven's New Nightmare is a 1994 American meta supernatural horror film written and directed by Wes Craven, creator of 1984's A Nightmare on Elm Street. A standalone film and the seventh installment in the A Nightmare on Elm Street franchise, it is not part of the same continuity as previous films, instead portraying Freddy Krueger as a fictional movie villain who invades the real world and haunts the cast and crew involved in the making of the films about him. In the film, Freddy is supposedly depicted as closer to what Craven originally intended, being much more "menacing" and "less comical", with an updated attire and appearance.
