On this week’s show we talk about the amazing 80s horror film, “A Nightmare on Elm Street.” We talk about the movie’s creator, Wes Craven and how he came up with the idea for Freddy and the Nightmare concept. We talk about the production, the stars, its jump to other media and a whole lot more. We are very luck this week. Jonathan has an interview with Nightmare Star, Heather Langenkamp . Just a reminder to drop by our official forums to discuss A Nightmare on Elm Street. You can find them at http://www.retroist.com/forum/.
The above art was again provided by Artist/Illustrator Christopher Tupa. To see more of Christopher’s work, drop by his website at http://www.ctupa.com. You can see all this work for the Retroist Podcast at The Art of the Retroist Podcast.
