Michael Bay is Responsible For Several of Cyrus's New Nightmares

Ready for this? This comes from Variety:

Freddy Krueger is getting a wakeup call.

Platinum Dunes partners Michael Bay, Brad Fuller and Andrew Form have been set by New Line to relaunch the movie series centered on the iconic killer, who haunts the dreams of teenagers and kills them in their sleep.

The trio will create a new franchise based on Wes Craven’s 1984 film “A Nightmare on Elm Street.”

Originally played by Robert Englund, the Krueger character haunted nine films and two TV series in what was New Line’s most lucrative franchise until “The Lord of the Rings.”

Deal comes as Bay, Fuller and Form ready an early May start for “Friday the 13th,” New Line’s relaunch of another iconic baddie, Jason Voorhees. Marcus Nispel will direct from a script by Damian Shannon and Mark Swift (“Freddy vs. Jason”).

Both franchises will be given a complete overhaul, just as Platinum Dunes did with the Nispel-directed “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.” New Line won’t hire a writer on “Nightmare” until the writers strike ends.

What a surprise! Michael Bay doing something wholly unoriginal...who could have predicted it? But wait...it gets better...

Rogue Pictures, the Platinum Dunes team is prepping an exorcism thriller to be directed by David Goyer and a “Near Dark” remake to be directed by Samuel Bayer. Bay, Fuller and Form are also developing a Universal remake of Alfred Hitchcock’s “The Birds,” with Martin Campbell directing Naomi Watts.

Bad enough to tell me that Bay is in anyway involved with a remake of Near Dark (a cult classic and one of my faves) but to have the gall to remake an Alfred Hitchcock film? Gus Van Sant is frelling crazy, I could forgive his pointless shot-for-shot Psycho remake, but this is just unconscionable. Bay is a monster.

A MONSTER!

I doubt anything Michael Bay can do with the new Nightmare on Elm Street movie will be anything like the first (and in my opinion the best). But I guess I have to hope it will be better than A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge.

I'm not sure I'm comfortable with Bay controlling Kreuger man.

Who would they get to play the old boy anyway? Robert Enguld is getting up there in years...

I liked Bad Boys 1, The Rock, and Transformers, but they're mostly guilty pleasures.

Dammit. Dammit dammit dammit!! The Birds? Really? AGGGGHHHH! Will it never end?!!
Comment by PHZ-Sicks on January 30, 2008 at 4:18pm
The Birds remake has been in the process for awhile now. Not that groundbreaking, but they are just trying to figure out how you scare people with birds this day and age.

WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Comment by Razmere on January 30, 2008 at 3:03pm
The Birds was stupid the first time around along with the Nightmare and Friday series. DAMN! Just when I was starting to like Bay.
