Episode Details

We near the end of Horrortober with the latest Kulturecast to pay tribute to horror legend Wes Craven with his final entry into the story of Freddy Krueger: Wes Craven's New Nightmare. The film features Heather Langenkamp playing a herself as she is coerced, by director Wes Craven and a demonic entity that has taken the form of Freddy, to play Nancy Thompson one more time. It's a meta-take on the classic franchise, and an interesting entry as well. We also speak with Matt Winston, son of special effects maven Stan Winston, who plays Chuck in the film.
