Chapters
In 1984, A Nightmare on Elm Street almost single-handedly saved a studio from the brink of bankruptcy and extinction. Gina explains how, and goes into the history of what other famous films wouldn't exist without this horror classic.
No other horror movie has as rich a legacy as A Nightmare on Elm Street. It made careers and inspired homages, ripoffs, and one very special Simpsons Treehouse of Horror episode.
The Witching Hour is the newest channel in the New Rockstars network, bringing you weekly horror film video essays from Jessica Clemons, Gina Ippolito, and Erik Voss!
