Chuck Russell quotes

The first Elm Street was such a fresh idea and it absolutely blew me away. But the second one didn't have Wes involved and I think it suffered as a result of that. With the third one Wes and his writing partner Bruce Wagner already had a script before I came onboard. Then me and Frank Darabont did some re-writes. We thought ‘why can't we make this film wilder and much more fun that the first one'. I realised that the heart of it was these adolescent kids. These 15/16 year old kids who are just at that age when you start to realise that bad things happen in the world. Of course, none of the adults believe the kids about Freddy so going to them always makes things worse in these films. (Chuck Russell)
