Wednesday’s Movie Trivia of the day!‘How much movie trivia can you answer?
What movie is this quote from??? “Whatever you do, don’t fall asleep.”
Answer: A Nightmare on Elm Street! This iconic horror classic from the 1980s was the first to feature Freddy Krueger. In this movie, a group of teens were haunted in their dreams by a man in a red and green striped shirt who was killed by their parents many years ago. Nancy and others deduced that falling asleep would place you directly into Freddy’s dream world; thus, not sleeping would prevent that. She shouldn’t have said anything–way to set impossible expectations. Sure enough, everyone in the film started falling asleep, despite efforts (after the first few unexplainable deaths) not to do so. Nancy even asked her boyfriend, Glen (played by Johnny Depp), to wake her up at a specific time…then he fell asleep too. Might as well just have suggested stopping breathing. “A Nightmare on Elm Street” was followed by six sequels in the coming decades before receiving a remake in 2009 directed by Samuel Bayer. Freddy Kruger has since become a horror mainstay, making Robert Englund, his portrayer, an icon in the genre.
