The Max Daddy  Of Horror Films Passes-Wes Craven At 76

 

 

 

From The Pen Of Frank Jackman

Usually this space is dedicated to current left-wing politics, all-around cultural critiques any commemoration of certain moments in the history of the convoluted American experience. Once in a while, and this time is one of them, it is important to take note of the passes of icons out the norms for this space though. The passing of horror auteur (and other stuff too) Wes Craven at 76 is so noted. The guy knew how to make scary movies, knew how better than most because he knew you only had to be a little out of the ordinary to be scary. You did not need all the techo-bang-bang. Take Freddie Kruger from Nightmare on Elm Street. I am still looking over my shoulder on dark streets on dark nights just in case. Enough said.
