NOES: Red in My Eyes

NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET: RED IN MY EYESREVISED EDITION
Written by Diane N. Tran

The doctors looked upon the crowd of a hundred, writhing and hissing below, at the top of the staircase.

Their fat fingers pointed at us.

One by one.

Counting.

Their eyes looked up me with fear.

They just stare.

They always stare.

And they always loose count.

This room, this dungeon, this zoo, was filled to the brim with the indigent, the unwanted, the unworthy, and the disturbed.

Their mouths fizzed with froth.

Their bodies droned and moaned and walked about.

Their eyes looked up me with fear.

Filthy.

Stupid.

Cowards, all of them!

And then there i

"NO MORE MR. NICE GUY"

From NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET! THE MUSICAL

Original song by Alice Cooper, with additional lyrics by Diane N. Tran

SONG TYPE:  Hard Rock

SCENE PLAYER(S):
   - Freddy Krueger, the murderer
   - Katherine Krueger, his six-year-old daughter
   - Child custody lawyer
   - Prepubescents (three to five)
   - Male chorus (offstage)

---

Outside the federal courts, FREDDY KRUEGER has gotten free from his murder trail due to a technicality.  He should be pleased, but isn't because he looses custody of his six-year-old daughter, KATHERINE KRUEGER, and after a tearful goodbye, she is taken away by a CHILD CUSTODY LAWYER supplied by the city.  KATHERINE hugs close a teddy bear, which has long stitches across its belly, a souvenir from a previous kill of his, which he begrudgingly gave to his daughter because she wanted it.

She drops the teddy bear accidentally before exiting offstage, but LAWYER turns stops to pick up the teddy bear, notices the stitches, and throws the bear at the alleged Springwood Slasher.

^{CHILD CUSTODY LAWYER (spoken spitefully):}

Exit LAWYER. Picking up the stuffed bear, FREDDY silently contemplates his situation and concern that be may never see his daughter again, as he traces the stitches with his fingers. Spotlight on him, alone, a flood of emotions boil over within him.

^{FREDDY (sung mournfully):}

^{FREDDY, CHORUS (sung violently):}

He throws the bear offstage in a fury; he puts on his hat and razor glove.

^{FREDDY (spoken):}

^{FREDDY (sung):}

^{FREDDY, CHORUS:}

He hungrily stalks a church playground with a small group of naughty PREPUBESCENTS who are cautiously lighting cigarettes, sipping beer, and reading the centerfold of a Playboy magazine.

^FREDDY:

^CHORUS:

^FREDDY:

^{FREDDY (spoken):}

^{FREDDY, CHORUS:}

He steals the cigarette from the lips of one of the disemboweled victims, takes a long drag, and exhales a heavy, heavenly sigh and cold chuckle.

^{FREDDY (spoken):}

He undoes his pants and turns his back to audience, facing the dead children, as the lights go dark.

^{CHORUS (sung):}

End scene.

Literature / Poetry / Horror / Songs & Lyrics

"Welcome to prime-time, bitch...!"

This is all my friend's fault! I've been helping my friend, ~Lady-Rorschach, co-write her Nightmare on Elm Street fanfic, "Innocent Demon", which is a re-invention of life of Freddy Krueger before was "killed" by the parents of Springwood. Not too long ago, she uploaded a Nightmare on Elm Street! The Musical song list as a joke. I, as did a few others, screamed, "Holy shit, that's awesome! I would pay to see this! We should totally do this!" So a few of us are knocking our heads together to make this a reality, based on the films (specifically Dream Child, Freddy's Dead, and intro to Freddy vs. Jason), the Freddy's Nightmares TV series, our fanfics, and our personal theories of the character of Freddy Krueger.

Technically, I don't know anything about music composition, but I do know poetry and enough general knowledge about musicology to muddle my way through, learning more as I go, along with a handy-dandy rhyming dictionary at hand and a ton of patience. Baby steps, baby steps...

On the song list, Abri wrote song title "No More Mr. Nice Guy," where Freddy goes on a rampage after loosing custody of his daughter. Although I attempted to try to think of original lyrics, Alice Cooper's song of the same name was all I could hear — on a loop! I'm going to bow to his greatness of the King of Shock Rock, who ironically played Freddy's abusive stepfather Mr. Underwood in Freddy's Dead (and met in person not too long ago at Texas Frightmare Weekend — he was a sweetheart!) and took his original song and tweaked the words slightly (à la Weird Al) in order to work it into the story, constructing like a Stephen Sondheim libretto/script. This song was inspired by the episode "No More Mr. Nice Guy," the pilot from Freddy's Nightmares TV series (which was a poor man's Tales of the Crypt) and it is perhaps the best episode of the series and then the series promptly went down from there... (Any dialogue that labeled as "spoken" should be "spoken in song"! "Sins of the Father" will be composed as a separate song. Don't be mad, Alice — I love you, babe!)

Amazing work your gallery is awesome too! Innocent Demon is really awesome too!

*tranimation-art Jan 28, 2013 Professional Filmographer

Awwww, thank you! That really means a lot to me! I worked very hard on INNOCENT DEMON, but sadly I don't get a lot of appreciation or recognition for my writing.

~ZADRgirl2113 Jan 29, 2013 Hobbyist Writer

You're welcome! I think you should continue innocent demon,I wanna finish it. Even if nobody else reads it, I'll read it!

*tranimation-art Jan 29, 2013 Professional Filmographer

I have full intention of continuing INNOCENT DEMON. The next chapter is finished, but because people don't really comment on it, I don't intend to post the chapter until about March. Each chapter should be scheduled for about every four months. This way, gives time for people time to read it and comment on it (if they every do). When I post the chapters close together, I don't seem to get many comments at all... It's strange really.

~ZADRgirl2113 Jan 29, 2013 Hobbyist Writer

Awesome!! I'll be sure to read them and comment on them, whenever I can!
