Wes Craven has died of cancer. I really liked his Freddy Krueger movies. RIP...

The "Scream" films were fantastic. And every time I write about a creepy janitor in a high school, I am probably channeling Fred.
For anyone interested, here's a link to an episode he did for the twilight zone with a young Bruce Willis talking to himself on the phone. It's called "Shatterday". Watch it, if you dare:)https://www.yahoo.com/tv/wes-craven-o...
Any DVD bonus features featuring him and any commentaries he voices are worth the time. A lot of directors tend to be boring if you watch a movie with their commentary, but Wes Craven was always interesting to listen to while watching his movies.Especially Hills Have Eyes...a lot of great stories about the making of that film.
Here's something I didn't know: Wes Craven directed the Eddie Murphy, Vampire in Brooklyn, movie. Of course, I'll have to wait until it comes on censored television before I can look at it, the uncut version is loaded with too many "F" and "MF" vulgarity.I can't enjoy a movie riddled with vulgarity.
