Ranging from the campy and gratuitous to the truly horrifying, Wes Craven films rarely disappoint. Any garden-variety horrorbuff knows that my list of best death scenes would be an epic fail if I left out the original Nightmare on Elm Street from 1984.
I must admit, I’m a little biased. As far as I’m concerned, any scene that starts off with a young Johnny Depp laying in bed is a good one. How do you take a good scene and make it a great one? Oh, I don’t know… Maybe if Freddy Krueger shows up and sucks aforementioned hottie into his mattress and then makes him EXPLODE into a fucking geyser of blood.
Is it terrifying? Not really. In fact, it’s a little silly. But if you and I have anything in common, that’s why we love it!
