Freddy Krueger is one of the most recognizable slasher killers of our time. The A Nightmare On Elm Street franchise spans 8 movies, a 2010 remake and we shouldn’t forget the Freddy’s Nightmares TV series of 1988, hosted by the man himself. All of this screen time, yet we haven’t yet got a prequel movie to properly explore Freddy’s background and how he became what he is. It’s definitely something that has long been talked about and speculated within the horror community and we even almost got an origin movie starring Robert Englund – but it just never happened.
