Sunday at midnight MySpace revealed the first trailer for New Line Cinema’s A Nightmare on Elm Street, which featured your first look at the Platinum Dunes produced remake arriving in theaters April 30. Since then, the trailer has received 1.6 million views on MySpace, making it one of the top videos ever on the social networking site. In fact, the trailer was so popular here on Bloody Disgusting it slowed the site to a screeching halt (you may have noticed the slow performance all day yesterday) and forced us to make some changes to our comment section.

‘Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire’ Heads Home to Digital Next Week

First reported by Ghostbusters News, Frozen Empire comes to Digital Tuesday, May 7.

But when the discovery of an ancient artifact unleashes an evil force, Ghostbusters new and old must join forces to protect their home and save the world from a second Ice Age.

The cast includes Patton Oswalt, Kumail Nanjiani, James Acaster, and Emily Alyn Lind, alongside Bill Murray, Finn Wolfhard, Ernie Hudson, Mckenna Grace, Paul Rudd, Celeste O’Connor, Logan Kim, Annie Potts, Dan Aykroyd and Carrie Coon.
