A long while after our last Missed Classic on When A Stranger Calls (1979), Ian Winterton confronts another feted movie he has heretofore avoided, 1984's iconic Wes Craven slasher, A Nightmare on Elm Street. Dan joins him for the discussion and there are spoilers from the start.
A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984 version) is available to rent on Amazon.
Since this chat was recorded, RedLetterMedia's two-part Re:View video on the Elm Street series has sadly become unavailable
