[SuperEvil]

Goddammit....RIP one of the horror masters.

 

[Goodfella86]

Fuckin awful. He was a true master. I love his work and will celebrate it in the next two months (always watch a lot.of horror around Halloween).

 

[Bobby Boulders]

Here's another awesome thing Craven gave us:

 

[SpiderCrawl]

Wow, that's sad.

 

[dawnignited]

Ugh, that's terrible news. I didn't even know he was sick.

The Serpent and the Rainbow and New Nightmare were two awesome movies that don't get nearly enough love-- not to mention NoES, Scream, The Hills Have Eyes...

R.I.P.

 

[Cajun]

Def a fan of his stuff.

 

[skombolis]

Well, he left his mark on the world and will always be remembered when it comes to the horror genre. If you gotta go, not a bad legacy to go out on.

Serpent and the rainbow should be considered a classic. To this day if someone threatened to fuck with me with some black-magic shit i honestly would just walk away because of that movie. I'm not taking any chances!

guy is a legend indeed

 

[method115]

fuk!

dude was pretty active on Instagram, I just bought his People Under the Stairs Blu Ray from Scream Factory

I'm sad

Just watched this movie with my daughter a month or two ago. One of my favorites.

 

[Organic Damage]

Gotta be a terrible way to go. Not as bad as the victims in the movies he wrote, but still...

 

[Kingz]

RIP

Some of his films didnt age well but he made game changing films for like 3 different eras. Thats pretty legendary.

 

[brownfeet]

damn this is sad to read. R.I.P Mr. Craven, thank you for all the memories.
I still remember watching all the nightmare on elm street movies as a little kid.

I did a NoES rewatch probably 6-7 years ago, I think this calls for another one. I don't think my wife has seen many of them so it should be fun. Maybe hold off until closer to Halloween.

Growing up in the late 80s/early 90s Freddy was the top dog of the horror scene among my friends. My friend even had a NoES board game.

 

[Nameless Ghoul]

Legend...looks like I'll be watching some of the classics in honor of my dead homie

I had to go see this for myself. Imagine my surprise when I learned that there was more than one in existence?
