Wes Craven
That's such a bitch. All the best NoESs were ones he directed. Scream's almost as significant. New Line Cinema should cast a statute of him in fucking platinum.
When Carpenter and Barker go, I don't know what the fuck I'll do.
Hey, lazy-ass journalist, get your shit right. A homeless dude almost broke into his apartment after Wes stared at him from a window one night. That's where he got the Freddy look and idea. He coupled that with stories he'd heard or read about former Khmer Rogue prisoners refusing to sleep to avoid their nightmares, which they were convinced would be fatal.

Craven claimed to have gotten the idea for Elm Street when living next to a cemetery on a street of that name when growing up in the suburbs of Cleveland. His five Nightmare on Elm Street films were released from 1984-89.
