The new Freddy Krueger (that would be Jackie Earle Haley under all the make-up) is slowly getting closer to haunting our cinematic dreams, and now you can get a longer look at him in action with a new clip from the remake of A Nightmare On Elm Street up over at Yahoo.
In the short chunk of footage, we find Nancy (Rooney Mara) desperately searching for her boyfriend in a supermarket, without realising she’s slipping into the semi-dream state known as “micro-napping.” Which, as the trailer explains, means you’re asleep for short bursts but don’t really know it. Scary...
Nancy knows it soon enough though – the shop environment melts around her, replaced by Freddy’s nightmarish world and his blade-fingered glove as he stalks her.
The film itself arrives on May 7.
