Cinematicly speaking that is?
I'd love to see them return in some way myself, solo films in particular. Throw Michael in there too.

For right now? Yeah probably.
I know there's a new Friday the 13th in production but I don't think the horror market wants slashers at the moment.

I wouldn't mind if they attempted NOES again, just in a "let's pretend that 2010 movie didn't happen" way.

I saw it in theaters, and all I remember about it was cracking jokes with my friends and the fact that the sick Paul O'Neill home run kid from Seinfeld was one of the main characters.

Supposedly there is a new Halloween film being worked on. And Carpenter is producing it. A new Friday the 13th film has been rumored for right at 10 years now.

There've been a lot of rumors going around for years that there's a found footage Friday the 13th in the works. Which is a pretty dumb idea given the entire appeal of the series isn't, y'know, the scariness of it but seeing Jason horribly mutilate people in various creative ways, but then the remake already missed that memo with just sticking to nothing but machete slashes the whole time.

I have no interest in a Freddy movie without Robert Englund at the moment. If they were to try and recast him, they'd better have a good script first.

I think Jackie Earle Haley was fine as Freddy... but the script was just not there for him.

I remember watchign this with my brother and he said midway through oh they must be multiple killers because Jason is literally in two places at once in this movie... this of course was not the case and was just terrible editing/writing.

I'm starting to think Freddy is this is coming from a huge Freddy Krueger fan which is really hard to accept. The problem is there will never be another actor that can fill Robert Englund's shoes as Krueger. The guy who played him in 2010 was mildly passable but whenever I see that movie all I do is wish it was Englund playing him. The only way I see another Nightmare film being made is if someone convinces Englund to play him if only for one last time. As for Jason...I hope the Friday series isn't dead either. That was my 2nd favorite series and still is. I'd like to see Kane Hodder play Jason at least one more time. Hopefully they work some magic and give us at one more of each but done right.

The thing with Freddy is the lore is all over the place concerning Freddy
1) He's Freddy Kreuger somehow given powers to kill in the dreamworld (1-5) 2) He's a Demon that took Kreuger's form (New Nightmare) 3) His powers come from "dream demons", And after his death go find another soul (Freddy's dead)
So if they follow 2&3's logic the killer in NOES can be anybody, Doesn't have to be Kreuger. Not saying it's a good idea (It's awful and I'd hate it) but there's things in the lore to backup rebooting NOES with a new killer with the same powers.
Hellraiser is the same, Hellraiser can be rebooted without Pinhead since in the Hellraiser lore there's loads of Cenobites

A good script, a great actor, zero CGI effects (the SFX were some of the best scares) and a legitimately gripping story not based on another film from the series would be a start. There's tons of people out there willing to give the series a shot, I'm sure. But if they NOES 2010 the execution, why bother?

Just get the rights to use the characters in the Ash vs. Evil Dead series somehow to make an adaptation of the comics.

Well they did make a 13th remake a few years back man. Also the Elm Street remake had potential but they squandered it by not following through on him being innocent it would have been a great take on Freddy.

Since the Jason remake every year or so there are rumors of another film in the series. What hurt the Nightmare remake was besides Jackie Earl Haley the rest of the cast was horrible. Plus the CGI effects looked horrible.

Teddy Teddy, Brother of the Freddy; Teddy Teddy, Brother of the Freddy...
