Wes Craven’s New Nightmare – The Horror Movie That Broke the Rules First

from Don't Press Play Podcast · host Alexander Beresford

Welcome back to Don’t Press Play...the podcast where we press play, so you don’t have to. In this episode, we’re diving deep into Wes Craven’s New Nightmare (1994)—the meta horror masterpiece that reinvented Freddy Krueger and quietly set the stage for Scream. Before Ghostface, before the rules of horror were spelt out on-screen... There was a movie that blurred the line between fiction and reality. Freddy left Elm Street and entered our world, and horror was never the same.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/don-t-press-play-podcast--6640070/support.
