October sees yet another classic horror film arrive on 4K, A Nightmare On Elm Street 4K UHD arrives on the 14th October 2024 in the UK
When A Nightmare On Elm Street (1984) released, Wes Craven introduced us to the now iconic, Freddy Krueger played by Robert Englund.
This is the movie that made us all afraid to close our eyes and drift off to sleep!

It also has a pretty good cast including Heather Langenkamp, Robert Englund, Johnny Depp, John Saxon, Ronee Blakley, Amanda Wyss and Nick Corri.
Released in the US on the 9th November 1984, the film proved to be a huge hit, taking over $57 million against a budget said to be around $1.8 million at the box office.
There’s also a special A Nightmare on Elm Street UK Exclusive 4K Ultra HD Steelbook available at Zavvi which releases on the same day as the standard edition.
I’ve added the new Warner Bros 4K trailer of the movie lower down the page.
