The Real Murders on Elm Street

The Real Murders on Elm Street is fundamentaly a good idea for a crime series, as there are many Elm Streets around the US, and have been perhaps surprisingly many particularly dire murder cases in these streets, which naturally fits a reality follow up of the.1984 horror classic Nightmare on Elm Street. Without going over the top or making annoying exaggerations the creators manage to get this documentary rather scary cinematographically, with dark mode dramatizations, and some effects and classical edge of or jumping in the seat means of action. Together with a well composed music score this works effectively, at least in the first episode, which stands out among the four produced so far. If the creators can find back to more of this in episode five and six, the total might come up to 8/10 in my view.
