Diagonaldi Very well executed

CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Bumpy Chip It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) "Krueger: Another Tale from Elm Street" is a 6-minute short film from 2 years ago written and directed by Chris R. Notarile, a young filmmaker, only in his early 30s, who has already made almost 70 films. And the good thing is it's not a case of quantity over quality as this film here is a fairly decent watch. This is mostly because of lead actor Roberto Lombardi, who fits the role of Freddy Krueger nicely and does a very fine job. The child actress is good as well and the writing is okay too, a bit generic maybe, but it's a thrilling watch and I liked that they did not go for some stupid happy ending or something. Certainly recommended for fans of the Wes Craven (rip) franchise. I enjoyed it and if you do so as well, take a closer look at Notarile's/Lombardi's body of work as you will find more Krueger stuff in there. Thumbs up.

Jane Eichelmann 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 ;)

DDPhilly *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!

Woodyanders 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.
