Trivia: Star Rooney Mara reportedly hated the script and only took the lead because she needed a career boost. She said the experience making the film was awful, though she has not divulged exactly why. Her experience making the film and its very poor reception even nearly made her quit the industry before David Fincher cast her in his films "The Social Network" and "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo," which garnered her critical acclaim and revitalized her career.

Trivia: Original series star Robert Englund was very supportive of the film during production, but admitted after it came out that he disliked how it turned out, feeling Krueger's makeup design was poor and that the characters weren't likeable or empathetic enough.
