Podcast: Thirsty For More - Movie Review
Episode: Cruising on Elm Street 7 - Wes Craven's New Nightmare
Description: Happy Halloween kiddies! In 1994 Wes Craven reinvented the genre by giving his iconic character the meta treatment. Freddy becomes so much more than just a dream slasher with a knife glove. He becomes the manifestation of regular life fears. This movie has a proto babadook feel. A proto scream feel. A proto meta horror feel. Craven didn't always strike gold, but he managed to pioneer a creative approach every decade. Great movie to end the the inaugural Thirsty For Gore season on! We're back to Stallone next week! Thank you for allowing us the privilege of reinventing podcasting for you...
