Freddy Krueger (nicely played with fierce intensity by Richard Myles) finds himself stuck in limbo after he's defeated by Jason Voorhees. Freddy tries to convince Michael Myers (hulking Joe Davis) to do his dirty work and kill the children of Elm Street. However, a battle to thedeath between the two terror titans occurs when Michael refuses to do Freddy's bidding. Writer/director Chris R. Notarile has a lot of fun pairing two major horror icons against each other; the big fight between Freddy and Michael is every bit as fierce, strenuous, and exciting as it ought to be. Moreover, Myles does well as Krueger and Davis astutely nails Myers' slow lurching walk and unnerving aura of quiet menace. Better still, the great surprise conclusion features inspired appearances by Leatherface, Jason, and even Pinhead from the "Hellraiser" movies. The atmospheric cinematography makes nifty use of shadowy lighting and background smoke. The lively rocking score boasts a rousingrevamped version of the classic "Halloween" theme and cues from Christopher Young's terrific original score for "Hellraiser." However, it's Notarile's obvious and infectious love and enthusiasm for the horror genre that makes this short so enjoyable and appealing. While not as polished as Notarile's latter work, it's still nonetheless a total blast to watch. A cool little item.
