Cover your eyes! The terrifying new poster for the A Nightmare on Elm Street remake proclaims that we’ll “never sleep again” and we here at Best for Film are genuinely quaking in our boots at the prospect. The slasher series, which spawned such classic cult movies as A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors and Freddy vs. Jason, is being revived yet again. Spooky.

Produced by Michael Bay (Transformers), A Nightmare on Elm Street is touted to be scarier than recent instalments of the series, with chief protagonist Freddy Krueger (played by Jackie Earle Haley of Watchmen fame) back to his horrifying best.  Ooh err. With Bay manning the helm we reckon this is gonna be one impressing looking mother.

A Nightmare on Elm Street will be landing at UK cinemas on May 7th 2010. Take a look at the pant-wettingly scary new poster here (that’s if you’re brave enough, of course).
