{The Midnight Horror} — Wes Craven's "A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET" Arriving on 4K UHD Remaster This October


I just wanted to let you know that Wes Craven's classic 1984 slasher, A Nightmare on Elm Street, will be available in 4K Ultra HD on Amazon Prime Video, AppleTV, Google Play, and Fandango at Home on October 1st. It will also be released on 4K UHD Blu-ray and  a Limited Edition Steelbook on October 15th to celebrate the film's 40th anniversary.


The film, directed by Wes Craven and starring John Saxon, Ronee Blakely, Heather Langenkamp, Amanda Wyss, Nick Corri, Johnny Depp, and Robert Englund, introduced the iconic horror villain Freddy Krueger and spawned a franchise. The 4K UHD "remaster" includes both the 1984 theatrical version and an uncut version with 8 seconds of additional, unrated footage.




The Digital release and Ultra HD Blu-ray disc contain the following previously released special features: 

  • Ready Freddy Focus Points 
  • Commentary with Wes Craven, Robert Englund, Heather Langenkamp, Ronnie Blakely, Robert Shaye, and Sara Risher. 
  • Commentary with Wes Craven, Heather Langenkamp, John Saxon, and Jacques Haitkin. 
  • Alternate endings 
  • The House that Freddy Built: The Legacy of New Line Horror 
  • Never Sleep Again: A Nightmare on Elm Street 
  • Night Terrors: The Origins of Wes Craven’s Nightmares

What do my fellow horror fans think about the upcoming 4K UHD "remaster" of A Nightmare on Elm Street? Are you excited? Are you disappointed there are no new special features? Please leave your thoughts in the comment section.
