Samuel Bayer has been hired to direct the horror remake Nightmare on Elm Street.�

Michael Bay’s Platinum Dunes and New Line have hired a director for the reboot of “Nightmare on Elm Street,” bringing on Samuel Bayer to direct the reimagining of the Wes Craven classic.

Bayer, for the uninitiated, is a sought-after director whose best-known work is in commercials and music videos; he’s won best director at MTV’s VMAs and is responsible for a host of iconic videos, including Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit” and Blind Melon’s video for “No Rain,” featuring the famous girl in a bumblebee costume.

I can’t help but feel disgusted by this news, you know what they say, ‘if it aint broke, don’t fix it’. Unfortunately Michael Bay and his company don’t go by that policy.�
