At first i wasn't satisfied with the performances, but then later it started to intrigue me. Krueger's actor is very scary. The man makes the Krueger's moves, even acts like the pedophile and cynic he was before been powered by demons. I liked a lot this short and i would like to watch this as a full length movie instead of another Hollywood remake. There's also a quote that reminded me Stephen King's IT when he said: "My name is Freddy. Now that you know my name, i'm not a stranger anymore." The short is good. It can be better with the right budget to do it at big scale, the guys have potential in doing this kind of stuff. It would be nice to watch those guys just like Fede Alvarez who began directing shorts and now he's the director of the EVIL DEAD reboot. There's talent out here. We should keep supporting.

I love when something is done from all the heart. Even if Blinky Production's movies are short, it's not the reason not to name it as a masterpiece. Also, what is very important - the way Fred Krueger was shown to us. And, of course, Roberto Lombardi made the biggest job in that part: I like His independence in role-playing and His approach to every character's detail. I think, He is the man who is the great replacement for mister Englund. Everything: his appearance, his voice and a manner of behavior are perfect compliment exactly for this character. I hope, that Roberto will give himself to his business as He is doing it now and maybe soon we will see a new remake with Lombardi in the main role ;)

*Minor Spoilers*Back in the summer of 2011, Chris R. Notarile and Roberto Lombardi released a brilliant prequel film based on the original "Nightmare on Elm Street" series called "Krueger (A Tale from Elm Street). It received high praise around the world from fans and critics alike and received very positive reviews.Fans have been asking for more ever since and finally we get what we asked for! Many fans, myself included, have always wanted to see just how Freddy lured his victims while he was alive and we have been writing to Chris and Roberto for almost two years to show us!Well, the wait is over! Roberto Lombardi once again portrays Freddy Krueger in two ways. Oily and manipulative while luring Suzy. Pure evil when he's got her in his lair. AMAZING! Chris R. Notarile steps up his game with a fantastic script and cinematography that is breathtakingly beautiful! The whole film makes you both uncomfortable and frightened! Just like a Freddy film should be! No other Freddy fan films come close to being this good and stay true to the originals. No matter what you may have heard, Notarile and Lombardi are the prequel originators! HELLO, Hollywood! Are you listening?My only complaint? It was just over 6 minutes long and I want more! But, from what I've heard these two short films are part of a much larger script. Here's hoping!

Despicable child killer Freddy Krueger singles out sweet young Suzy as his latest intended victim. Writer/director Chris R. Notarile presents a positively nerve-wracking depiction of how Krueger was quite cunning with his victims by approaching them under the deceitful guise of being a kindly stranger with nice intentions (he tells Suzy that her mother has been hurt and needs to see her right away); watching Krueger close in on his prey is similar to seeing a large sadistic cat play with a helpless little mouse prior to killing it. Moreover, Notarile treats the potentially offensive subject matter with admirable taste and restraint; he suggests rather than shows and this short acquires additional chilling potency as a direct result of this. Of course, none of this would work if Roberto Lombardi wasn't convincing as Krueger; Lombardi makes for a terrifyingly believable Freddy and even sounds just like Robert Englund. Breanna Lakatos as Suzy likewise delivers a credible performance that elicits the viewer's sympathy. Nice use of both Charles Bernstein's original score from the '84 original and the classic Steve Lawrence golden oldie "Go Away Little Girl," too. Highly recommended.
