DVD 1 : A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET, EXTENDED CUT 2009
The 2009, all-new edit of the best horror film of the 80's marks its 25th anniversary, and features 9 minutes of restored and digitally enhanced footage, new scenes, alternate takes, longer scenes, a different soundtrack and for the very first time, Johnny Depp's fully uncut death scene fully re-edited into the film, the SPFX of Heather Langenkamp's blue screen footage at last 'finalized', as well as Craven's original ending the way he wanted it to be seen. Every added shot has been color-corrected and cleaned, and the film's soundtrack has been completely remastered and reworked. This is a brand new edit done in 2009, not the low-quality 2004 edit previously available on FanEdit. I started from scratch in order to deliver a high quality, coherent and longer edit of the film, finally including some never-before-used footage, making this the ultimate Nightmare edit, completed by a second DVD of bonus materials (cf. details below). The DVD includes animated menus and chapters.

SOURCES USED TO CREATE THIS FAN EDIT

- The uncut film from the UK VHS.

DVD 2 : BONUS MATERIALS
Including:

A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET : THE BEGINNING
An original fan edit of the "Freddy's Nightmare" pilot episode directed by Tobe Hooper, "No More Mr. Nice Guy". Not the best fan-edit ever done, but certainly a vast improvement over the original version of that pilot, and a nice complement to the film's extended cut on Disc1. (41'07)
- The whole feature has been color corrected, and framed shot-by-shot to a widescreen 1.85 aspect ratio, for a more cinematic experience.
- Music cues from Nightmare 1, 2, 3, 4 and 7 have been added all through this new edit, sometimes replacing the lame TV score.
- The titles and the intro have been completely redone.
- We now can see the photos of Freddy's unfortunate victims during his trial.
- The cheap "8-bit" filters used for Freddy's P.O.V. have been enhanced to look more film-like.
- The dialogue between the angry parents outside the tribunal has been trimmed down.
- A full moon behind Krueger lurking around the Blockers' house has been inserted.
- Lt. Blocker's cheesy dream sequence is completely cut.
- End credits completely redone, based on those of Nightmare IV, synched to Iggy & The Stooges.

DELETED SCENES, OUT TAKES AND ALTERNATE FOOTAGE
- All the footage from the limited VHS box set released by Elite Entertainment (41'26)
- All the deleted footage from the Infinity DVD release (16'29)

ALTERNATE ENDINGS
- The two alternate endings neither seen in the original film or in the fan edit (1'54)

PHOTO GALLERY
- Animated photo gallery with over 170 rare photos from the original Nightmare On Elm St. film (5'40)
